      • bioText: The author/filmmaker deemed rockstar by the kids they meet won the prestigious Delacorte Dell Yearling Award and Parents Choice Silver Honor for Prizefighter En Mi Casa. Feels Like Home received critical praise, but it was Fat Angie that generated the New York Times best-selling author buzz from Gregory Maguire and Ellen Hopkins. Nominated for Best Fiction for Young Adults and the Rainbow List by YALSA, Fat Angie garnered starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and School Library Journal and went on to win the 2014 American Library Association Stonewall Book Award. Traveling throughout America on an unconventional book tour, Charlton-Trujillo workshopped with at-risk youth in their communities at no cost to the programs. They created a feature documentary of the experience titled At-Risk Summer.

Fat Angie
fullDescription

Winner of a 2014 Stonewall Book Award
Her sister was captured in Iraq, she's the resident laughingstock at school, and her therapist tells her to count instead of eat. Can a daring new girl in her life really change anything?

Angie is broken — by her can't-be-bothered mother, by her high-school tormenters, and by being the only one who thinks her varsity-athlete-turned-war-hero sister is still alive. Hiding under a mountain of junk food hasn't kept the pain (or the shouts of "crazy mad cow!") away. Having failed to kill herself — in front of a gym full of kids — she's back at high school just trying to make it through each day. That is, until the arrival of KC Romance, the kind of girl who doesn't exist in Dryfalls, Ohio. A girl who is one hundred and ninety-nine percent wow! A girl who never sees her as Fat Angie, and who knows too well that the package doesn't always match what's inside. With an offbeat sensibility, mean girls to rival a horror classic, and characters both outrageous and touching, this darkly comic anti-romantic romance will appeal to anyone who likes entertaining and meaningful fiction.
