Book Description | Dumplin' by Julie Murphy... Under the starlit Texas sky, accompanied by red lollipops, and Dolly Parton's songs, I bet you'll fall in love with Dumplin'. Willowdean Dixon, the fat girl who always tends to be a self-declared loner. Her former beauty queen mother called her "Dumplin'" - are her thoughts about having the perfect body for a bathing suit? Yes, and that's how I decided to wear a bathing suit. With the help of Elaine, her best friend and a stunning American beauty, everything was always going well... until Will took a job at Harby's, a fast food restaurant. There she met handsome private school student Bo Larson, a former athlete. Will is not surprised when she has a crush on Boo, but she is truly surprised when he reciprocates those feelings. As well as finding new ways to feel confident in her relationship with Boo, Will grows more doubts. So she decides to gain her self-confidence again when she does the scariest thing in her opinion: participating in the Miss Bluebonnet Teen Pageant - along with a number of unexpected entries as well - Will shows the whole world that she deserves to participate in something like this as much as any other girl. During her journey in the competition, she will terrorize and surprise the entire population of Clover City, and perhaps herself first of all. |
