Synopsis:

"Does heroin give you pimples?" Tucker asked.

"All junk does. Junkies love sweets," Dinky said authoritatively. "I never met a junkie who didn't verge on bulbous acne."

"How can you eat and talk about bulbous acne?" Tucker said.

"I'm not finicky," Dinky answered.

Synopsis:

Published in 1972, Kerr's spectacularly funny and now famous first novel for young adults is not another anti-drug sermon. Dinky does not shoot smack nor is she about to--she only makes the announcement so that her mother will give her some attention.
