So Ida's best friend is into playing basketball. (She's a girl)
Popular girl is always bragging about how she's the first girl in their class to wear a bra.
Later in the story the school puts on a play of Peter Pan.
Ida's mother is obsessed with Ida playing Wendy because she played that when she was Ida's age. She even gives Ida the nightgown she wore as a costume. Ida is trying to figure out how to tell her mother that she really wants to play tinker bell.
It doesn't matter, because she gets the part of Tiger Lily. She's a little disappointed, but okay with it. Later she remarks that she really likes her tiger lily costume and describes it, but I can't remember.
Ida's best friend gets the part of Wendy. She's been slowly ditching Ida for popular girl. Ida mentioned she was annoyed how Wendy had a southern accent like in gone with the wind instead of a british accent.
I have a few more details, and I think they're from the same book, but they might be from a different book that I'm mixing it up with: the girl had a cat named Mudd that died and got buried in the backyard. She wrote a poem called Ode to Mudd. She had an older brother. The cover had an ugly picture of her with straight brown hair and a wide mouth.
I read this book (or both of them if they are different books) in mid to late 00's.
