The being perfect part is hard though, since her parentsâ divorced and everything in her life has changed. Wary of her too-perfect stepmom and her momâs neat-freak, dismissive boyfriend, sheâs often angry or upset and feels like a guest in both homes. She tells herself to face facts: Sheâs a âleftoverâ kid from a marriage that her parents want to forget. But she has to keep all of that to herself, because a good Southern girl never yells, or throws fits, or says anything that might hurt other peopleâs feelingsâinstead she throws her shoulders back, says yes maâam, and tries to do better. So Fizzy tries her best, but itâs hard to stay quiet when her family keeps getting more complicated. Fortunately, the Southern Living cook-off gives her a welcome distraction, as do her new friends Miyoko and Zach, who have parent issues of their own. $c Provided by publisher. 521 8 $a 770 $b Lexile. 541 $d 20190624. 650 7 $a Cooking $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Stepfamilies $v Juvenile fiction. 650 $a Families $z Southern States $v Juvenile fiction. 941 $a 3 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331013803.0 952 $l REPC017 $d 20220407022700.0 952 $l YGPC162 $d 20190817011618.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64E73672C0B411E985D5526B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
