Forever Four Series

They wanted to give every girl a voice. They had no idea they’d make so much noise.

4 Girls is created from the very best thoughts, ideas and dreams of four girls. But when Miko has to take a step back from the magazine again, Paulina, Tally and Ivy decide to run a contest for one lucky student to have his or her work featured on the cover. Miko will help them judge the entries, along with a new faculty advisor who seems to want to steer the girls in a new direction. Can these four girls keep their one vision in sight, or is it time to strike out on their own?

They wanted to give every girl a voice. They had no idea they’d make so much noise.

Paulina, Miko, Tally, and Ivy are headed to the Big Apple! The four girls will shadow real reporters at City Nation magazine over their Thanksgiving break, and report on all their events for the next issue of 4Girls. There’s excitement, glamour, and plenty to see in New York in just three days.

In the second installment of Elizabeth Cody Kimmel’s funny new middle grade series, the magazine is up and running and while the girls may have won the competition to get school funding, now they face new and unexpected challenges. Tally is out for the lead in the school play. Miko has left the magazine to focus on her schoolwork and spend time with her real friends. Ivy is hiding a secret that is distancing her from her new friends. And Paulina is left to juggle the magazine on her own. Will she crack under the pressure?

4 girls creating 1 voice . . . will anyone be heard?

Paulina, Miko, Tally, and Ivy are four extraordinarily different seventh-graders. Paulina is 100% Type A. Miko is a fashionista. Tally is a theater queen. And Ivy – well, Ivy’s the new girl at school. The four girls get tossed together to create a school magazine – by girls, for girls – in a competition to get funding for a new school program. But it seems like they’ll never agree on anything. And just when they begin to make headway, their biggest rival – the athletes – threatens their progress. As the four girls try to complete the first issue of their magazine, and create a corresponding blog, they start to wonder if they can get past their labels and give all the girls in school a way to speak up.
