The Dorkasoruses Strike Back!

The chunky chick doing the peanut-butter and marmalade mash has gotten over 1000 hits, as Maureen's friends would tell her. Maureen felt embarressed until she met Bean-pole Barbara and Alergy-Alice. The three of them, together, were to be known as the Dorkasoruses. When they found out that there was a talent show at school, they knew this was their moment to take down the 3-P's (pretty, perfect, & popular). Can the Dorkasoruses compete against the 3-P's gymnastic, acrobatic act? Find out in this terrific story of friendship, humor, and underdogs meeting the challenge.
