(3) 4-6 Wilma Sturtz endures most of the eighth grade as "unpopular," but a few weeks before graduation she does a good deed and is granted her wish to be the most popular kid at school. Levine convincingly captures Wilma's adolescent distress between wanting her friends to like her for her and never wanting the spell to end.
