Quero Vestir-me à Minha Maneira!

Synopsis of Quero Vestir-me à Minha Maneira!

«Quero Vestir-me à Minha Maneira!» is the young adult novel by Yvonne Coppard, published by Editorial Presença in paperback (140 pages, in Portuguese).

Jenny despairs of her mother: she believes old-fashioned clothes, like those from Marks & Spencer, will stop her making friends and finding a boyfriend. The story humorously contrasts teenage rebellion with her mother's practical outlook, and also addresses studies, friendship and personal image.

First volume of «The Diaries of a Teenager and Her Mother»; in the Portuguese edition, «O Clube das Amigas». The English original, «Not Dressed Like That, You Don't!», is from 1991.

For young readers and preteens looking for relatable stories about identity, fashion and family relationships.
