Yes, this book is geared toward girls, although it can related to boys too.
I was a fat girl, and I still am in my mind. Even after losing the weight, you really never get over the fat girl feeling. I wasn't sure after the first poem if I was going to like the first look, but as I continued to read on, I realized I didn't just like it, I loved it!
Ellie's story is told in a poem fashion, which in this case really hits home with the emotions and the struggles she faces. Her fears and her insecurities come out and many of the thoughts she has, are the exact same ones I had when I was a child/teen/young adult.
