So he hides in baggy jeans and oversized hoodies, in the back row during class, and anywhere but the cafeteria during lunch. But shame isn't the only feeling that dominates Will's life. He's also got a crush on a girl named Jules who knows he doesn't have a chance with, string beans only date string beans, but he can't help wondering what if? Will's best shot at attracting Jules's attention is by slaying the Will Monster inside him by changing his eating habits and getting more exercise. But the results are either frustratingly slow or infuriatingly unsuccessful, and Will's shame begins to morph into self-loathing. As he resorts to increasingly drastic measures to transform his appearance, Will meets skateboarder Markus, who helps him see his body and all it contains as an ever-evolving work in progress. 521 8 $a Ages 8-12. 650 0 $a Obesity $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Self-esteem $v Juvenile fiction. 650 1 $a Self-esteem $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Obesity $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Bildungsromans. $2 lcgft 941 $a 15 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010615.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012950.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025433.0 952 $l YWPD162 $d 20230902015256.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230802012801.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230802012348.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20230802011713.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20230729010033.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230706010539.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010111.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20230622010216.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230621011222.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20230621010121.0 952 $l WFPC115 $d 20230615150916.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230606011259.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7E0463C4042F11EE896B6DEA35ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
