Can average be amazing? The bestselling author of Frindle shows that with a little kindness, it can. Jordan Johnston is average. Not short, not tall. Not plump, not slim. Not gifted, not flunking out. Even her shoe size is average. She’s ordinary for her school, for her town, for even the whole wide world, it seems.

Then Marlea Harkins, one of the most popular girls in school—and most definitely the meanest—does something unthinkable, and suddenly nice, average Jordan isn’t thinking average thoughts anymore. She wants to get Marlea back! But what’s the best way to beat a bully? Could it be with kindness?

Called “a genius of gentle, high concept tales set in suburban middle school” by The New York Times, bestselling author Andrew Clements presents a compelling story of the greatest achievement possible—self-acceptance.


平凡人也可以一鳴驚人嗎？暢銷書《我們叫它粉靈豆》(Frindle) 的作者表示，只要我們心存良善，平凡人也可以不平凡。喬登‧喬斯頓是一位平凡人，她不矮也不高，不豐腴也不苗條，不是資優生，成績還算普通，就連鞋子的尺寸也也在中間值，她大概是全校、全鎮、甚至是全世界再平凡不過的人了。

瑪莉‧哈金斯，是全校最受歡迎的女生，也是最刻薄的女生，做事不經大腦，翻臉跟翻書一樣快，平凡的喬登決定不再當平凡人，她想要將瑪莉導回正途，但她該怎麼做才能跟惡勢力抗衡呢？善良的心能夠感化她嗎？

本書描寫自我接納是最偉大的里程碑，《紐約時報》書評讚譽「這本以郊區中學為場景的故事筆觸溫柔、含意深遠」，描述一個人最大的成就──接納自我，情節引人入勝，是暢銷作家安德魯．克萊門斯又一部佳作！
