Sweet Valley High goes on a diet
The fluffy 1980s teen fiction series updates itself -- by making its heroines even skinnier.
Sarah Hepola [2008-03-28]

  • Never heard of it.

    And I was in middle school from '86 - '88 (in NY, not in Botswana, for instance). I don't remember any of my friends reading this book, either. Just sayin'... maybe not as popular at it seemed back then. (Or as it seems to this book's promoter.)

    Also, no matter what a teenage-lit book says is the perfect size, I know someone who is a clothing model for companies that need what they call a perfect size 8 model to tailor/fit their clothes. And the woman is damn skinny.
