The Complicated Life of a Dance Sister: My Twelve Inch Mom

By Karen Stegman-Bourgeois

Twelve-year-old Quinn's life explodes into absolute bonkers-ville when her mom-a scientist with a questionable grasp on safety protocols-accidentally SHRINKS HERSELF while testing a diet drug. (Spoiler: it does shrink fat cells... and also bones, skin, hair, and basically everything else.)

Now Quinn's stuck juggling a miniature mom who lives in a dollhouse, a school bully with a knack for knowing everything, a crush who suddenly likes the enemy, and an aunt whose "healthy" dessert experiments could be classified as biohazards.
Oh, and don't forget the neighbor's emotionally unstable guinea pig who's gone on a hunger strike, or the dance competition where Quinn totally blanks and nearly exposes her purse-dwelling parent.

Just when Quinn thinks things can't get any weirder, she gets a cryptic call from her long-lost dad... from a number that immediately self-destructs.

Middle school is hard. Middle school with a pocket-sized mom, a know-it-all bully, and a rodent named Dominic? Practically impossible. But Quinn's learning that when everything goes haywire, all you can do is find the silver lining... and maybe carry tweezers.
