Worse than weird / Jody J. Little.

Little, Jody J., (author.).

Summary:

For MacKenna MacKensie MacLeod, writing computer code is the only thing that blocks out the weirdness of her world. Weirdness that her parents see as totally normal: drum circles, goat yoga, and Earth festivals. They care more about chicken coops and kale than things like giving Mac her own room or sending her to the summer coding camp of her dreams. But when a local food-cart contest offers 2,000 to the first person to order ten secret menu items, Mac sees her chance for a summer as streamlined as a perfectly written code. And when her two best friends, Willa and Brie, agree to help, Mac is convinced their teamwork can win the prize--that is, if their classmate Joey Marino doesn't beat them to it. Hunting for clues and snacks takes Mac on cross-city sprint, where she learns that help often comes from the strangest of places, and that maybe, just maybe, there are worse problems than being weird.

Summary

Worse Than Weird


Readers who love Leslie Connor and Ann M. Martin will adore this story of a citywide scavenger hunt and a girl who learns that family--and weirdness--is relative. Summer Coding Camp Incoming 7th graders only Eight-week session begins June 28 This is it, my summer plan. Hoping to ditch two months of chicken coops, kale, and her parents' antiscreen rules, Mac MacLeod sets out to win a citywide food cart scavenger hunt and the money she needs for the summer coding camp of her dreams. But Mac discovers more than just clues during her cross-city sprint--like how her weird parents might not be the worst thing compared to the circumstances of those around her. With the same humor and hope of her debut novel, Mostly the Honest Truth, Jody J. Little gives readers another spunky, unforgettable character to root for.
