About this ebook
After recovering from an emotional breakdown, a scrappy high school student dares to be happy and disrupt the social scene in this coming of age novel from the world's #1 bestselling author.
Margaret "Cuckoo" Clarke recently had a brief stay in a mental institution following an emotional breakdown, but she's turning over a new leaf with her "Operation Happiness." She's determined to beat down the bad vibes of the Haters, the Terror Teachers, and all of the trials and tribulations of high school by writing and drawing in her diary. And when life gets really tough, she works through her own moments of uncertainty through imaginary conversations with her favorite literary characters.
Cuckoo's also got a nearly impossible mission: she, along with her misfit band of self-deprecating friends (who call themselves "the Freakshow") decide to bridge the gap between warring cliques and "bring the Nations together." Not everyone is so willing to join hands and get along, but Cuckoo never stops smiling ... until one of her closest friends, pushed to desperation by a prank, decides that enough is enough.

Even though Cuckoo has just come out of a mental hospital, she is the most relate able character I've ever read about. Her take on life itself is so innocent in the world of terrible things called high school. Even when life just won't give her lemons, she still finds a way to make lemonade. This book is totally inspiring and will teach you life lessons about positiveity! Definately a good read!
