Oates, Joyce Carol. Big Mouth and Ugly Girl. New York, NY : Harper Collins, 2002. ISBN 0-06-447347-3




Ursula Riggs, a tall, quiet athletic girl, makes an unlikely friend when she comes to the defense of Matt Donaghy, a popular student leader, after he is accused of making a threat to bomb the school. This book shows how fast your life can change, as Matt goes from popularity to a self made social outcast, wanting nothing to do with his former friends who showed him no loyalty in his time of need.
