Marcia Faitak can’t believe it. The scale says one hundred and fifteen pounds. It’s the day before eighth grade starts and thanks to a broken ankle she’s out of shape and looks terrible. What boy is going to ask her to the dance in October? "Not Alex Ryan," she thinks. But Marcia’s own appearance takes a back seat when her social studies teacher assigns her a service-learning project giving makeovers to the residents at West Creek Manor Nursing Home.
