Fat Cat

by Robin Brande

Summary: Overweight teenage Catherine embarks on a high school science project in which she must emulate the ways of hominims, the earliest ancestors of human beings, by eating an all-natural diet and foregoing technology.

Mrs. Turner's BookTweet: A refreshing look at a teen's struggle with weight. This is an issue that plagues many teens, but this student actually goes about it the right way...for a grade. Highly engrossing from the first page.
