Holy cow, that was fast!! That's the one, thank you!
I'm looking for a comedic book series (written with cartoon illustrations interspersed) about a teenage girl. Here are some really specific details I remember:
- She had a best friend with short hair and big, round glasses - Her pet was a really ugly, sausage-shaped beagle - Her nemesis was a blonde popular girl who had a special technique of using "scent zones" in her hair; she could flip her hair a certain way to send certain scents at guys - In one book, she had a crush on a teacher - There was a plot line in there about a wedding in the family; the main character had to wear wooden clogs and an ugly brown dress for a bridesmaid's outfit because the bride thought clogs were in fashion - In one book, the nemesis's class project was to put up pictures of everyone alongside pictures of their pets, to test the hypothesis that owners usually look similar to their pets (this was a point of contention for obvious reasons)
If anyone recognizes this, let me know!
