THE TIME WAS RIPE!
Becca had always been ready to eat. As a child, eager to please her mother, she had cleaned her plate, even asked for seconds. Later, it was cookies and milk, pizza and French fries, ice cream and fudge sauce. Now it was all catching up with her. Nobody cared what a good person she was. Nobody noticed how smart she was. The slim, petite girls were chosen for the school honors and all the boys ran after them.
She had just about given up when a sudden impulse led to an exciting new job. For the first time in years, she began to regain her self-respect and, in the process, improved her love life beyond her wildest dreams. [text from book jacket]

Hi! I'm Danielle Fishel. You know me best as Topanga Lawrence from the TV show Boy Meets World. This is a chance for you to get to know me in my world--the real world, that is. As you'll see, I have to deal with life's everyday issues--like curfews, friendships, dating, family, all that body image stuff, and so much more, just like you do. That's a struggle, no matter who you are! And if there's one thing I've learned, it's this: There's no "rule book" when it comes to growing up. So this is not a worldly advice book. Rather, it's a chance for me to share some of my life's experiences--and perhaps from that you'll discover how similar our worlds really are. Always, Danielle !"!
