Fetching

Olivia has just about had it with the popular kids at school. She and her friends have done nothing to deserve humiliating pranks and mean name-calling, but that doesn't stop queen bee Brynne from tormenting them. If only Olivia's classmates were more like the dogs she helps her grandmother train--poorly behaved, but improvable. Then Olivia hatches a brilliant plan: she and her friends will modify their tormentors' behavior with the same kind of training that works on dogs. Using cues and responses, distractions and rewards, gets better results than anyone could have guessed. Soon, Olivia and her friends have replaced Brynne as alpha-dogs. But will popularity get Olivia what she really wants?
