â€œRaina Telgemeier fans will lap this up.â€
â€”Â Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

A laugh-out-loud funny and empowering graphic memoir about growing up and finding your voice.

Twelve-year-old Cindy has just dipped a toe into seventh-grade dramaâ€”with its complicated friendships, bullies, and cute boysâ€”when she earns an internship as a cub reporter at a local newspaper in the early 1970s. A (rare) young female reporter takes Cindy under her wing, and Cindy soon learns not only how to write a lede, but also how to respectfully question authority, how to assert herself in a world run by men, andâ€”as the Watergate scandal unfoldsâ€”how brave reporting and writing can topple a corrupt world leader. Searching for her own scoops, Cindy doesnâ€™t always get it right, on paper or in real life. But whether sheâ€™s writing features about ghost hunters, falling off her bicycle and into her first crush, or navigating shifting friendships, Cindy grows wiser and more confident through every awkward and hilarious mistake.
