Alice, a misfit extraordinaire, has been home-schooled by her aging-hippie parents since early childhood; now 15, she enrolls at the local high school. "Alice's acerbic apercus will have readers roaring," PW said in a starred review. "Juby's dark wit virtually glitters on every page." Ages 12-up. (May)
