Description

Join a bridesmaid's hilarious journey to the altar in this sharp-witted story of family, friendship, and embracing your true self, no matter what you’re forced to wear.

Miri is fourteen, and in the last year, she’s been mugged by puberty. She’s grown six inches, expanded in all directions, her breasts are out of control, and she’s prone to random eruptions of spots.

Life already feels like a nightmare, and now she’s been asked to act as a bridesmaid for two of her siblings. Two weddings and two bridesmaid dresses – could things get any worse?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 8.
