Synopsis: Don't let that frilly pink dress fool you. Bootsie Barker is one tough cookie, and she makes life miserable for another little girl whose mother said she has to learn to get along with all kinds of people. Any child who has ever been tormented by someone bigger, older, or meaner will recognize the shadow of Bootsie-the-terror and thrill to the underdog's toothsome victory. Full-color illustrations.
