Dear Reader,
In the first installment in the comedic series CONFESSIONS OF A SO-CALLED MIDDLE CHILD (called "a must-read book for all young girls" by Dr. Laura), 12-year-old Charlie Cooper has to learn how to overcome her middle child self and stop bullying her way through life.
In book two, WATCH OUT HOLLYWOOD!, Charlie's finally where she's always dreamed of being. She's got a Hollywood agent, a TV series on the table and a boyfriend! Everything's perfect. Until she tells a little white lie. She thinks no one will find out. But they do. And the little white lie costs her everything she's worked so hard for: the TV series, her agent, Marta the Farta and her crush, Bobby Brown.
Will they ever trust her again?
Can she EVER stop doing the wrong thing?
Enjoy,
Maria T. Lennon

Discussion questions:
1. On the first page of the book Charlie states she's no liar. Do you think if you tell white lies that you're a liar?
2. Charlie's friend Jai tells her that a lie is like a rock thrown across a quiet lake. What do you think he means by that?
3. Charlie thinks that if she can do a good deed for Marta, her lie will be cancelled out. Do you think a good deed can cancel out a bad one?
4. Bobby thinks fame and fortune is horrible and wants Charlie to steer clear of Hollywood. Why does he think this? Do you agree?
5. Do you think Marta is right to be THAT mad at Charlie?
