Following her parents' advice that she try to look and act more "normal," Eve dresses for success at her new school and subsequently makes friends with girls who care only about appearances. Eve's conversational and opinionated narrative humorously questions the gender stereotypes she sees played out at school and at home with her disorganized house-husband father and thoughtless older brother.
