Romance of the Snob Squad

Julie Anne Peters

Another funny and heartfelt story starring the misfits of the Snob Squad, from National Book Award finalist Julie Anne Peters.

In this touching, wryly humorous sequel to Revenge of the Snob Squad, readers are reunited with sixth-grade misfits Jenny, Max, Prairie, and Lydia as they cook up an outrageous plan to ignite a romance between Prairie and the object of her affection, Hugh Torkerson (otherwise known as "Tork the Dork"). A science lab rat, a set of embarrassing glamour photos, and a mysteriously disappearing notebook all play a part in this scheme, but the results may attract more attention than the Snob Squad planned.
