Karate Kid meets Wimpy Kid in this hilarious YA coming-of-age story. 14-year-old Mikey McElwaine dreams of the girl he longs to meet. She's so real he can almost reach out and touch her... if he didn't keep waking up and getting in trouble with the school bully. Then Mikey meets Lian in the real world, and she changes everything for everyone. Girlfriend Trouble is a funny, heart-warming story about tolerance, understanding and the acceptance of the unpopular kids; it's about having self-confidence, self-respect and respect for one’s peers, and about dealing with bullies both youthful and grown-up. If you like The Karate Kid, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and teen romantic comedies, you'll love Girlfriend Trouble.
