“Remarkable.”—New York Times Book Review From Annie Barrows, the acclaimed #1 New York Times–bestselling coauthor of The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and the author of the award-winning and bestselling Ivy + Bean books, this teen debut tells the story of Charlotte and Frankie, two high school students and best friends who don’t have magical powers, fight aliens, crash their cars, get pierced, or discover they are royal. They just go to school. And live at home. With their parents. A great read for fans of Becky Albertalli, Louise Rennison, and Adi Alsaid. Nothing ever happens to Charlotte and Frankie. Their lives are nothing like the lives of the girls they read about in their YA novels. They don’t have flowing red hair, and hot romantic encounters never happen—let alone meeting a true soul mate. They just go to high school and live at home with their parents, who are pretty normal, all things considered. But when Charlotte decides to write down everything that happens during their sophomore year—to prove that nothing happens and there is no plot or character development in real life—she’s surprised to find that being fifteen isn’t as boring as she thought. It’s weird, heartbreaking, silly, and complicated. And maybe, just perfect.
It's Spring Break and Bean's older sister, Nancy, is going to Girl Power 4-Ever Camp, where she will do Crafts and Music and Dance and other secret things that Bean will never know about because you have to be eleven to go to Girl Power 4-Ever Camp.

Ivy and Bean are always up to something. Whether it's solving global warming, creating a neighborhood newspaper, or inventing the best camp ever, their adventures are always hilarious and filled with surprises! Now fans of the bestselling series can join in the fun by reading the books and then using the enclosed iron-on decals and temporary tattoos to decorate T-shirts, backpacks, arms, ankles whatever they want.
