New Jersey transplant and spunky brunette, Annisa, and her Sand Dune High cheerleading squad are headed to Nationals! Just when she thinks her blonde teammates have accepted her, some of the girls have suddenly made it their mission to convert Annisa to the blonde side. Annisa thinks her luck is finally changing when her old squad makes a surprise appearance at Nationals, but soon it turns into a Jersey vs. Florida turf battle. Torn between two worlds, and two hair colors, can one nonblonde cheerleader make it through the sea of highlights and rock Nationals her own way?

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 8-10–A sequel to I Was a Non-Blonde Cheerleader (Putnam, 2005). Annisa made her South Florida high school squad last year after moving from New Jersey. Now, the cheerleaders have the opportunity to attend the national competition. She still doesn't feel accepted by her teammates, and when they suggest they dye her hair to match theirs, she is upset. Her resistance to the idea only serves to make the other girls question her dedication. Additionally, she is interested in a boy whose ex-girlfriend is on the squad and who makes it clear that she doesn't like Annisa. Her relationship with him isn't really fleshed out, and his proclamation of waiting for her his entire life feels forced. Nationals are exciting, Annisa's squad takes first place, and everything works out in the end, including a first real kiss. Snappy dialogue and current references might make this formula book popular with the cheerleading set, but the subject matter, along with the propensity for using italics for effect, will leave other readers unimpressed.–Karen Hoth, Marathon Middle/High School, FL

This review is from: Brunettes Strike Back (Mass Market Paperback)
Good for ALL high school students, their parents, teachers and administrators to read. I am a retired school superintendent and ALL students experience this type of treatment. This is definitely a type of school bullying and it has to stop. I feel it would make excellent MANDATORY reading for high school freshmen.
