A must-read for young feminists, The Prettiest is an incisive, empowering novel by Brigit Young about fighting back against sexism and objectification.

“All middle school girls AND boys (especially boys!) should read this book.”―Alan Gratz, New York Times–bestselling author of Refugee

THE PRETTIEST: It’s the last thing Eve Hoffmann expected to be, the only thing Sophie Kane wants to be, and something Nessa Flores-Brady knows she’ll never be . . . until a list appears online, ranking the top fifty prettiest girls in the eighth grade.

Eve is disgusted by the way her body is suddenly being objectified by everyone around her.
Sophie is sick of the bullying she’s endured after being relegated to number two.
And Nessa is tired of everyone else trying to tell her who she is.

It’s time for a takedown. As the three girls band together, they begin to stand up not just for themselves, but for one another, too.

About the Author

Brigit Young is the author of the middle grade novels WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS, THE PRETTIEST, and BRIGHT. She was raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where she got through many a cold winter by reading all the books on her house's shelves. In elementary school, her mom introduced her to Shakespeare, and she fell down the rabbit hole into the addictive land of stories. Since then, she has published poetry and short fiction in dozens of literary journals, and taught creative writing to kids of all ages. Her debut middle grade novel, WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS, was a 2019 Bankstreet Best Book for Ages 12-14. Her sophomore book, THE PRETTIEST, was listed on Seventeen Magazine's 45 Books You Can't Put Down, and NBC News's "Celebrating Every Body: 9 Books to Help Young Girls Build a Positive Image." She lives in New Jersey with her husband and daughters.
