It's Picture Day and Lizzie McGuire's parents have pressured her into wearing the dorky sweater her grandmother gave her for Christmas. Lizzie loves her grandmother, but when she gets to school, her sweater makes the other kids laugh so hard that one of them actually squirts milk out of his nose. Not the fashion statement Lizzie was going for. Lizzie knows it's dumb to care about what other people think. Then again, does she really want to be remembered in the yearbook as The Girl in the Unicorn Sweater? At the last minute, Lizzie decides she has to change her clothes. If only she can come up with a plan...before three o' clock!
Lizzie has finally gotten the courage to ask Ethan Craft to the school's Sadie Hawkins Dance. But when he tells Lizzie he thinks of her as "just a friend," Lizzie does what any teenage girl with a heart-wrenching crush would do-she sets out to change his mind! Plus, Gordo agrees to tutor Ethan in math, but when Lizzie insists on helping, it adds up to driving him crazy!
Is your family just too weird to deal with? Lizzie's Survival Guide to Family has awesome tips and ideas for every totally bizarre-o family situation you can think of. You've seen Lizzie cope with her way-out family; now learn how to keep your own cool when your family gets freaky.
Assigned to Lizzie McGuire as required reading during one of her school classes, The Orchids and Gumbo Poker Club finally puts into print this "lost classic," for which Lizzie fans have been fruitlessly searching since they saw Lizzie reading it during the "Mom's Best Friend" episode on Disney Channel's hit Lizzie McGuire television series. A "post-it" on the front cover of the book lets readers know this is Lizzie's personal copy. And humorous comments and doodles in the margins of the interior are all Lizzie's, too. Featuring a "scholarly" introduction, the book centers on Darcy Lou, a young woman living on the Louisiana bayou of the late 1940s, whose orchid-growing mother, Tallulah, and her mother's crew of eccentric Cajun poker-playing friends, work together like fairy godmothers to help Darcy Lou attend the lavish New Orleans ball of her dreams. A "lost classic," The Orchids and Gumbo Poker Club may not have been an Oprah Book Club selection, but it's sure to delight any Lizzie McGuire fan!
