      The Day Joanie Frankenhauser Became a Boy

      By
      Joanie’s mom wants her to act more "like a girl," but who can play basketball in a skirt and cute plastic sandals? When Joanie’s family moves to a new town, a typo on the school records makes her "John" instead of "Joan," and she jumps at the chance to reinvent herself. But how long can she keep pretending? And even if she could keep her identity secret, would she want to? Being a boy is no walk in the park! Francess Lantz seamlessly weaves great sports action, a compelling family drama, and Joanie’s secret stories about SuperKid into a funny, thought-provoking novel about friendship and self-discovery. This description may be from another edition of this product.

      Fun and instructive

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      This is the story of a girl who wanted to be a boy, and could even pretend to be one when she had the opportunity. I read the story with my 11 year old son who enjoyed it a lot. He could relate easily to all the things that Joanie was attracted to, and was intrigued by the fact that a girl could be interested by them. I think this story changed his perception of the girl/boy typical model. I must say that I enjoyed it a lot...

      Really Great

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      I hang out with boys sometimes, so I know how Joanie feels about being treated like a GIRL. It's like sharing a secret with her when you hear about how she keeps her mom from knowing at school,she's a boy. All the things about Amigo's sickness are actually a little scary,but the SuperKid stories make up for that. I don't think boys will envision this as a "girl" book at all.
