“A fun, fast-paced read for tweens . . . they’ll have a blast!” --Booklist ""Brody takes a common trope and freshens it up . . . . a strong story about appreciating friends and family and making good choices."" --School Library Journal ""The familiar body-swap scenario gets a further magic twist in this comedic middle school fantasy. . . . a fun read for anyone who might wish they could be someone else for a little while."" --Kirkus Reviews Praise for ADDIE BELL'S SHORTCUT TO GROWING UP: ""This lightweight, fun romp points out that big changes (some of them unfortunate) can come from small choices thoughtlessly made, and that being yourself with your equally uncool best friend is a lot better than being popular all by yourself. . . . Hand to readers looking for best-friend stories with a hint of romance."" --School Library Journal ""Plenty of funny moments . . . a fresh take on the age-old theme of being careful what you wish for."" --Publishers Weekly ""Reminiscent of 13 Going on 30 . . . readers will be satisfied."" --Kirkus Reviews
