Freaky Monday by Mary Rodgers and Heather Hach

A nice read for a young girl. It's about Hadley, a sister who is plainer than her older sibling and worries about being a nerd. While she's trying to deal with that issue, she's also got a crush on one of her classmates. But she's afraid he likes her sister best.

And then she forgets to do her homework - which never happens. Now she's trying to explain it to her teacher and they recite a sentence together, and switch places! Now she's Ms. Pitt and Ms. Pitt is in her body! Oh, it gets worse.

Ms. Pitt is to be interviewed for a new position this afternoon - and Hadley knows nothing about the position or why Ms. Pitt wants the job.

Hadley (Ms. Pitt) finds that Zane wants to date Hadley. And Ms. Pitt (Hadley) finds that another teacher is interested in dating Ms. Pitt.

If you want to find out how the job, love lives, and exchange get resolved, make a comment here on my blog and then email me your name and address and tell me why you'd like it at info@bookfaerie.com to get in on the drawing for it.

This sounds cute. A co-worker has a 4th grader. I think this would be perfect for her.
