The hilarious and heartening story of a teen girl who makes several astonishingly terrible decisions in an effort to find the support she needs. Giddy Barber knows with certainty she’s going to become a mechanical engineer. What she doesn’t know is the last time she smiled. With her parents overworked and unavailable, it falls to Giddy to make sure her siblings stay on track. But she’s exhausted. When you’re the person everyone else turns to, what do you do when you hit a wall? Giddy finds an answer online–if you can’t handle how things are going, shake them up. Is it sound advice? Unclear. But is Giddy willing to try anything? Absolutely. Putting eleven days on the clock, she’ll change her routine. But soon it becomes clear that some problems are bigger than what an online column can fix–her family is fracturing, her anxiety is mounting, and all she knows is this: Something. Has. To. Give. In Dina Havranek’s Giddy Barber Explodes in 11, a long-time teacher dives into the issues of depression, overwork, and lack of support many of her students are dealing with. In a results-obsessed society, how much are we demanding of teens? And what happens when their burdens become too much?
