Becca tries to instill a sense of being oneself in her fourth-grade students, who idolize celebrities and models and sometimes try to be people they aren't. It is all these traits that made Becca's fiancé, karaoke-bar owner Adam Lopez, fall in love with her. When she runs into high-school adversary Libby Leslie, who is now entering the local Pittsbrugh beauty-pageant circuit, Becca--like Adam, short on funds for their wedding--decides to enter the Squirrel Hill neighborhood beauty pageant to win the associated trip to Hawai'i for their honeymoon--despite being a short, plus-sized woman instead of the stereotypical beauty-pageant Barbie doll. For the first time in their lives, Amanda can't support Becca in this venture, fearing that she'll be hurt by those Barbies and their entourages ridiculing her. But as Becca goes through the process, she begins to lose sight of the reason she is doing it in trying to be just like the "Barbies" around her. Written by Huggo See less
