I would make the girls angry because they continually argue with their teachers. The girls often break down and cry in the story because they are feeling overwhelmed due to the immense amount of stress that they are under.

Both of the girls are being bullied by one of the teachers. I would have the girls talking to one another and then the teacher come up and make a snarky comment to the girls. The girls would then talk back to the teacher, but the teacher is persistent in making rude comments and continues to make them to a teacher who comes up next to them.

As I read this book it makes me angry to hear how other people talk to Biggy. It bothers me when anyone talks to someone with so much disrespect.

I would have both of the school girls wear the traditional school uniform. They would be wearing a plaid skirt with a collared shirt and another shirt over the top of the collared shirt. As for socks, I'd have them wear tall white socks and brown flats. Their hair would be required to be tied back.

The set would look like a school with super colorful lockers. There would be pink couched sitting out in the hallway as their school is very comfy.

The theme of this story is that people can be cruel. People are vulgar to Biggy and she feels like she can't be around people because they're rude.

I chose Grace Kelly because of the way they describe Biddy she has blonde hair that is always styled. Although she is not special ed, she reminds me of her.

There is a bird that is constantly a bird that is flying over top of them. This is the same bird, it's never a different bird it has the same markings all over. Biddy's father became out of the picture at such a young age and she constantly talks about how her dad loved birds.

In the book, it takes place mostly in the school. At first, it took place in the high school and moved outside to the stadium. After that, they moved to the college where they were enrolled.
