| Perfect
depiction of eighth-grade friends Danita and Laredo. Danita is less self-confident
and not ready to sally forth and introduce herself to boys. Laredo has
enough self-confidence for both, and calls up the perfect guy for Danita
pretending to be her and arranges a date. Danita's life gets complicated
when she keeps bumping into the perfect guy and he seems interested in
her. What family secret is he trying to pump out of her? Is Danita old
enough to handle the news? |
