"A fast, funny, and interesting story about what is, perhaps, an
unexpected topic for a YA novel: plastic surgery for young adults.
Plastic contains interesting information on elective cosmetic
surgery, including its potential complications...Recommended."--
"CM Magazine"
"Characteristically fast paced and of high interest. Information
about both the pros and the cons of plastic surgery is included
without detracting from the plot. Plastic does a good job of
exploring an important societal issue while telling a timely
tale."-- "School Library Journal"
"In our hyperkinetic, disposable culture, the book Plastic is that
rarity: a readable cautionary tale about responsible activism."--
"CD Syndicated"
