About the Book There's a Girl in My Hammerlock
There’s a Girl in My Hammerlock by Jerry Spinelli is a young adult novel that tackles the themes of gender roles and the challenges faced when these norms are defied. The protagonist, middle-schooler Maisie Potter, after failing to make the cheerleading team, decides to join the all-boys wrestling team, much to the discomfort of her peers and the boys on the team. Despite facing ridicule and resistance, including from her best friend Holly and her crush Eric, Maisie perseveres, proving her worth and skill in the sport.
The novel is a reflection on the societal expectations of femininity and masculinity, and Maisie’s journey is one of self-discovery and determination as she breaks barriers and confronts the prejudices of those around her.

Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
