When janie became a Girl


The book i am reading so far, is about a girl who hates being herself. Janie has always wanted to be a girl, because at her old school girls were treated like they had no strength, and they were really pathetic. Janie hates that, and has always wanted to be a boy because she loves football, and she never got to do that at her old school because of the way girls were treated there.
When Janie and her family moves to a new place, and a new school... Janie is sad at first. Then, when her completely new teacher calls out attendance, she calls out John... instead of Janie. Janie at first is shocked, but then realizes that she could become a boy/John at her new school! She starts her school year as a boy named John, and soon proves that girls are just as good as boys at anything. Janie becomes mixed up though, she doesn't really want to have to pretend that she is boy that much longer with her family so close to her school.
This book is great so far, and I can't wait to find out more about janie's boy life!
