As Rachel Simmons toured the country, these girls found their voices and spoke to her about their pain. They wanted to talk-and they weren't the only ones. Mothers, teachers, counselors, young professional women, even fathers, came to Rachel with heart-wrenching personal stories that could no longer be kept secret.\nHere, Rachel creates a safe place for girls to talk, rant, sound off, and find each other. The result is a collection of wonderful accounts of the inner lives of adolescent girls. Candid and disarming, creative and expressive, and always exceptionally self-aware, these poems, songs, confessions, and essays form a journal of American girlhood. They show us how deeply cruelty flows and how strongly these girls want to change.\nOdd Girl Out helped girls find their voices; Odd Girl Speaks Out helps them tell their stories.\n\nI'm always the odd girl out\nNo one talks to me\nI try to be friendly and speak out\nBut I'm invisible, see?\n\nYou know, gossip is a natural thing in high school. I'm one of those girls that will\ndo it right in front of you. I'll whisper at my friends and look at you the whole time.\nThen we'll all cut up laughing. You know we're talking about you.\n\nMy best friend and I started being friends with this other girl. But she was fat. It was hard because she always wanted to go down the slide second and she would crush us. We didn't want to tell her she was fat, so we decided to drop her. Her mother called my mother and\ntold her we were being mean. But we just couldn't be friends with her anymore.\n\n-from Odd Girl Speaks Out\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0156028158\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0156028158.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Simmons, Rachel\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
