From the Publisher:
Having removed the overly dramatic makeup of her solitary high school days, Ellie looks forward to recreating herself and her art. Arriving alone for winter session at the New England College of Art and Design, Ellie finds the ideal opportunity. In her first days she begins dirty dancing with the Devil. Then she makes out with him. A story about independence, trust, and boys.Having left behind the melodrama of her solitary high school days—and the beheaded martyrs in her paintings—Ellie arrives at the New England College of Art and Design. Looking forward to the opportunity to recreate herself and her art, she begins her first day by dirty dancing with the Devil. Then she makes out with him. Ellie soon learns a lot about herself in this story about independence, trust, and boys. |

Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Ellie herself is a deeply authentic mix of uncertainty, daring, and personal strength, and her revelatory first semester is true to life; the development of her artistic confidence is a particularly original and compelling theme." - Deborah Stevenson October 2002
