Melvin Burgess Lady: My Life as a Bitch
Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) 2002 0805071482 / 9780805071481 Hardcover Very Good
"'() If you gotta be a dog, be a bitch. ''My tail was going bananas as I rounded the corner and headed into Platt Fields park. The pavement was alive: my nose was an eye that sees into the past. I speeded up. Oh, I was in love with Terry, but to run and sniff and feel my ears catching sounds out of the air! But what do you know? Only a dog could understand what I mean.'' Sandra Francy is seventeen and having way too much fun. Everyone wants to stop her but the problem is, she likes it. When she accidentally gets turned into a dog she's horrified at first, but soon she starts to wonder if being human is worth the effort. Her attempts to hang on to her humanity are bizarre and often hilarious-but her life as a dog leads her to pleasures she hardly knew existed. Award-winning author Melvin Burgess brilliantly captures the realities of teenage life and hormone imbalance. '''' ID: mon0000076074"

Sandra (a.k.a. Lady) is dismayed at first, but quickly discovers the pure joys of unfettered freedom to do whatever she wants and have sex with whomever she pleases--a seemingly perfect scenario for a devil-may-care young woman who would ''have shagged [Wayne] up against the wall for a bag of jelly beans a month ago.'' Hooking up with a couple other humans-turned-dogs, Lady roams the streets and, well, does what doggies do: ''One thing about dogs--they know how to greet someone. It's not so much scratch and sniff as sniff and lick--as soon as you see someone, you just gotta know what they taste like!'' Her new life is not without inner turmoil, however. Part of her longs to return to her human life, annoying family, standardized school testing, boy-o'''' ID: mon0000072063"
