Margie Kelly Breaks the Dress Code

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"Margie Kelly's perfect skirt was dress-coded on her very first day of middle school. Upset and embarrassed, Margie spends the whole day wearing oversized gym shorts--so much for starting sixth grade with confidence! But when she realizes that the dress code is applied only to the girls and not the boys, Margie gets mad. Really mad. Something has to change--and Margie knows just how to do it. She'll plan a school-wide protest with her best friend Daniela and fellow classmates Jamiya and Gloria. Yet as Margie moves forward with her plans, she comes to realize some hard truths about herself. Will Margie recognize her own privilege and create meaningful change for all students?"--Back cover.
