I Am an artichoke

Picture I Am An Artichoke ©1995
 "Despite the serious subject matter -- anorexia and dysfunctional families -- this accomplished first novel sparkles with deliciously wry humor. . . .In a slangy, deadpan narration spiced with acute observations of characters and scenery, Frank brings a fresh, funny and vibrant new voice to YA literature."   --Publisher's Weekly (starred review)
