Book Description
"Carlotta Ikedi (a.k.a. Feddie Girl) has never liked school. Not in California. Not in Oklahoma. When her exasperated parents ship her off to boarding school-- in West Africa-- Carlotta faces a life, culture, and existence unlike anything she's ever known. School rules and regulation, rising bell, lights-out, manual labor, inspections, dining time, prefects, punishments, mean bunkmates, and visiting days-- it's all here. But author Nona David takes Carlotta's story a step further when her adventures lead to unfortunate incidents that threaten to drive her American family into the clutches of infidelity and organized crime. Boarding school doesn't get any better than this"--P. [4] of cover.
