How
To Rock Glasses and Braces is the best story I’ve read in a while. This
story is the best story for anyone going into middle school or high school and
they have braces or glasses. Kacey Simon is the main character in this story,
and she’s the popular girl in school, but not only is she popular, she’s
truthfully mean. She’s also the school’s reporter and the star of the school
play. She made a mistake by not taking her eye drops and got an eye infection.
She was then required to wear glasses until the infection went away.
If that wasn’t bad enough, at her best friend’s party,
she slips on the ice and wakes up at the dentist’s office. She is told that
she’s getting braces and she feels like it’s the end of her world. She now has
a lisp and she has to wear these horrible glasses. With the help of her ex-best
friend, Paige Greene, and Zander, a guy from an indie rock band, she seems to
be getting her life back on track.
I can relate to the
main character, Kacey Simon. She thought it was the end of the world when she
got braces. I felt like people wouldn’t like me when I got braces and they
would avoid me like a plague. I wasn’t fond of getting glasses either and Kasey
felt the same way. With the help of my true friends I was okay with having
braces and glasses. Also, my parents helped me love my look like Kacey’s mom
did in the story.
This story is quite
relatable to girls of any age. They feel like changing themselves will change
how people will think of them. Most people also strive for popularity like
Kacey did. This story shows that you should choose to do what you love instead
of doing things that others want you to do. In the book, Kasey shows this by
choosing to be in the band with Zander instead of being friends with Molly
again. This book eventually became so popular that it became the base for the
former Nickelodeon show “How to Rock”.
