139,95 kr. Die #1 der "New York Times"-Bestsellerliste: Dick UND schön? Unsicher UND mutig? Dumplin` ist all das und noch viel mehr.Willowdean – "16, Dolly-Parton-Verehrerin und die Dicke vom Dienst" – wird von ihrer Mutter immer nur Dumplin' genannt. Bisher hat sie sich in ihrem Körper eigentlich immer wohl gefühlt. Sie ist eben dick – na und? Mit ihrer besten Freundin Ellen an ihrer Seite ist das sowieso total egal.Doch dann lernt sie den sportlichen und unfassbar attraktiven Bo kennen. Kein Wunder, dass sie sich hoffnungslos in ihn verknallt – dass er sie allerdings aus heiterem Himmel küsst, verunsichert sie völlig. Plötzlich macht es ihr doch etwas aus, nicht schlank zu sein. Um ihre Selbstzweifel in den Griff zu bekommen, beschließt Will, sich der furchteinflößendsten Herausforderung in ganz Clover City zu stellen: Sie will am "Miss Teen Blue Bonnet"-Schönheitswettbewerb teilnehmen und allen – vor allem sich selbst – beweisen, dass die Kleidergröße für das ganz große Glück überhaupt keine Rolle spielt."Badeanzüge haben so etwas an sich, das einen denken lässt, man müsste sich erst das Recht verdienen, sie zu tragen. Aber eigentlich ist doch die entscheidende Frage:Hast du einen Körper?Dann zieh ihm einen Badeanzug an."Julie Murphy lebt mit ihrem Mann, der sie liebt, ihrem Hund, der sie vergöttert, und ihren Katzen, die sie akzeptieren, in Texas. Nachdem sie sieben Jahre als Bibliothekarin gearbeitet hat, widmet sie sich jetzt ganz dem Schreiben. Wenn sie nicht gerade schreibt oder in Erinnerungen an die guten alten Zeiten in der Bibliothek schwelgt, schaut sie Filme, die nur fürs Privatfernsehen gemacht wurden, fahndet nach der perfekten Pizza mit viel Käse oder plant ihre nächste große Reise. Julie Murphy lässt sich wie Dumplin' kein noch so verrücktes Abenteuer entgehen.

- Kunsten at tænke stort
73,95 - 123,95 kr. Dumplin' er en underholdende, humoristisk feel-good YA-roman om at leve med sin vægt.Dumplin’ omtaler sig selv som “den tykke pige”, men hun føler sig godt tilpas i sin store størrelse. Hendes mor har været den lokale skønhedsdronning, og hva’ så? Den ultimative bikini-krop er ... enhver krop, efter hendes mening.Men så forelsker hun sig i Bo, som er en af den slags lækre fyre, alle piger falder for. Will er ikke overrasket over, at hun finder ham tiltrækkende. Men det kommer bag på hende, at Bo også er tiltrukket af hende. Det får stik imod al fornuft negativ indflydelse på hendes selvfølelse. Og så melder hun sig til en lokal skønhedskonkurrence for at bevise, at skønhed er mange ting."Ugh. Jeg har lige læst denne bog færdig, og jeg er ikke sikker på, om jeg kan beskrive, HVOR meget jeg ELSKER den".- Læser på GoodreadsPressen skriver: »Dejlig og vedkommende ungdomsbog. Gravalvorlig og hylende morsom på én gang […] Willowdean er en fantastisk pige, og man græder med hende, når hun bliver svigtet og føler sig trådt på eller alligevel ikke er helt så glad for sin store krop, og man griner med hende, når hun rigtig ruller sig ud og har det godt. Der skulle være flere af hendes slags i virkeligheden, det ville gøre verden til et bedre sted […] En anbefalelsesværdig ungdomsbog, som jeg håber, mange vil kaste sig over – tykke som tynde.«- Lene Jensen, Litteratursiden»I Dumplin', gik jeg ind til en virkelig sjov og hjertevarm fortælling, der er den perfekte sommerlæsning.«- Louise H., Kære dig
