Product Description Courtney Moore is the best gamer at the arcade. But she can't understand why there aren't more girl characters. When Courtney imagines her own video game, the hero is a girl who knows how to handle any situation. If only I was like that in real life, Courtney wishes. Her dad's moving for a job, so Courtney won't be living with him on the weekends anymore. That's causing a big problem with her stepsister, who doesn't like sharing a room with Courtney -- or her guinea pig. When her mom announces that she's running for mayor, Courtney's blended family has to learn to work together differently. It's a whole new game for Courtney, and she's figuring out the rules as she goes. From the Author I'm so beyond proud of this book, and I can't wait to hear what people think of it! About the Author Kellen Hertz was raised by New Yorkers in Fresno, California, a combination that resulted in an overactive imagination and a yearning for bagels. She decided to become a writer at age 10, after reading the 14 volumes of L. Frank Baum's Wizard of Oz series (since the job of Princess of Oz was already taken.) After tragically losing her unfinished first novel in a sea of library books on the floor of her room, however, she was forced to seek other employment. She is the author of American Girl's Tenney Grant series as well as the co-author of Lea and Camila, Book 3 in Lea Clark's Girl of the Year series. Kellen loves vintage maps, strange names, strong coffee, and words and all the flavors they come in. Most of all, she loves her family. She lives with her son and husband in Los Angeles.
