Bernadette Inez O'Brian Schwartz is a very small girl with a very long name and a very BIG imagination...

Bernadette is having a hard time starting her grade three school year. Her best friend has moved away and now she has to deal with bossy teachers, nosy younger kids, and food fights all by herself – and that’s just at lunch! It’s only when she makes three new best friends, Annie, Keisha, and Megan, that she finds a way to survive the school lunch room – by forming the Lunch Bunch! Together the girls will plan a pirate birthday party, paint a mural to make someone happy, and discover that everyone has a special talent – even if it doesn’t belong in the school talent show!
