Team Awkward series.
Leah’s parents think she’s at an after-school art club, but instead she’s leading her school’s QuizBowl team as its first sixth-grade captain. Leah is determined to succeed as a leader, but her win-at-all-costs attitude affects her friendships and her teammates when she goes too far to best a rival. This companion to Jojo vs. Middle School has a likable protagonist who learns an important--and gently delivered--lesson.
