Description
“A comic romp that's also an enlightening quest for
increased awareness and self-understanding.” -Kirkus
Veronica rules the school. David's starting a revolutions. It's class president election time, and no one is more surprised when Veronica Pritchard-Pratt is the only name on the list. She's the most popular girl in school, a social giant who rules the campaign every single year. David, for one, is sick of the tyranny- which he says. Out loud. When Veronica hears about this, she issues a public challenge to David. With his pride on the line, Davide accepts his fate and enters the race.
But as the campaign wages on, and David and Veronica are also paired up for a spring music recital, David learns this Goliath is more than just a social giant, and maybe deserves to win more than he does.

Advance Praise
"Van Dolzer alternates the humor of David's
election-race antics with introspective moments focusing on his changing
perceptions of Veronica's situation. David's narrative is a blend of candor and
wry humor, conveying his earnestness beneath his uncertainty and bluster...Ultimately, David's emerging maturity is honestly won
and will resonate with readers. A comic romp that's also an enlightening quest
for increased awareness and self-understanding." -Kirkus
