My Mind Is Totally Mine, the last book in the Cocky Chicks Series, is a lesson in endurance and patience and a reminder that persistence pays off.
"Bohunk, who do you think you are these days, showing off with As."

a glossary defining text-underlined words.

Trapped in poverty, degraded, and abused, the road to a better life looks bleak for Miss Maggie McPhee. Her struggle for a better life is both wrenching and hopeful.
Longing to cut her sash to the hated label of Poor White Trash, she takes to heart Mr. Boar's life-changing lesson. (See Korte's second parody, Hats Off to Mr. Boar.) For three years, she maintains excellent grades despite belittlement and put-downs from a mean stepmother. Her dream remains paramount until sadly, in high school, something beyond her control-an adage-burdens her with unthinkable baggage. Convinced her goal is unattainable, she settles for less than her best until a historic event flips her dream to obtainable. But those lingering demons haunting her mind . . . To break their shackles, what simple word must she say?
Besides being fun to read, this rhyming parody alsopromotes diversity, builds vocabulary, teaches valuable life lessons, and emphasizes the importance of education.
