In this touching, wryly humorous sequel to Revenge of the Snob Squad, readers are reunited with sixth-grade misfits Jenny, Max, Prairie, and Lydia as they cook up an outrageous plan to ignite a romance between Prairie and the object of her affection, Hugh Torkerson (otherwise known as 'Tork the Dork'). A science lab rat, a set of embarrassing glamour photos, and a mysteriously disappearing notebook all play a part in this scheme, but the results may attract more attention than Snob Squad planned.
Praise for Romance of the Snob Squad: "[Full of] laughter and tenderness... [readers] will recognize the dreams of glamour and the painful farce at home and school. - Booklist
"[The] wry, wisecracking first-person narration is even funnier in this book... the characters, already solidly realized previously, are even better developed this time around." - Kirkus
"Fans of Peters's earlier Snob Squad books will want to read this one, too." - School Library Journal
