Ida May finally fits in at school after becoming best friends with Stacey Merriweather, who is universally liked by their classmates. But then Ida?s frenemy, bossy Jenna Drews, brings in a game of truth or dare, and all the girls are suddenly daring one another to misbehave. When Ida finds herself in the principal?s office, she?s scared into ratting out her friends and gets freezed out of the group. The only way she can fix things is to take a triple-dog dare: letting one of the girls pierce her ears. Will her BFF come to her rescue, or is this the perfect job for a frenemy?
Packed with fourth-grade jealousies, problems, misbehavior, and consequences, this third book about Ida May stands on its own.

Julie Bowe is a full-time author who knows how to strum a guitar, play a really good game of foosball, and had her first story published in fifth grade when she entered a contest in the local newspaper and won first place! Julie is the author of the Friends for Keeps series and lives with her family in Wisconsin.
Grade 3-5 Fourth-grader Ida May is precariously poised between wanting to be herself an artist who follows the rules and loves her sock monkey and wanting to be accepted by her more sophisticated peers who are into makeup and fashion. Then, a game of truth or dare causes her best friend to turn against her, and everything changes. It falls to frenemy Jenna to remind her that standing up for yourself is braver than going along with the crowd. Like Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid (Abrams), My Best Frenemy emphasizes the conflict between wanting to do the right thing and wanting to earn popularity. Written in descriptive language (Her words were covered in prickles) that sets the scene and gives readers insight into Ida's confusion and growth, the story is realistic and well told. Wendy E.
