Beautiful Girl

This is one of the "Wildfire" teen romance novels, popular in the 1970s and 80s. It's a bit different in that the main character's problem isn't wishing to be beautiful and popular, it's wishing NOT to be beautiful. April finds from a very early age that her beauty causes people to treat her differently -- from the teachers who make her a pet (causing others to resent her), to the students who assume she's a snob. This is a good book for middle and high school students because it tries to show them that they should never judge on appearance, whether that appearance is beautiful or otherwise.
