Eleven year-old Frederica Gold, a.k.a. Freddy, is smart, talented and overweight. She hates her name, her body and the school bully. As if that weren't enough, she is unhappy about her parents' divorce, and scared and excited about turning twelve and starting a new school. Freddy is miserable until she starts seventh grade and meets two overweight girls, Dolly and Eva. They become instant friends and together they form a successful band, Fat Girls From Outer Space. In this coming-of-age story, Freddy, a girl with a less-than-perfect body, learns to cope with adversity by using her humor, talent, energy, and the support of her friends and a special 'fat angel', to earn popularity and respect.
