内容概要

　　Best friends Horace, Morris, and Dolores do everything
together. So when they try out for the chorus and Dolores (who
sings notes no one has ever heard before) doesn't get in, she feels
hurt and angry and -- not like Dolores at all -- sorry for herself.
But mostly she feels lonely, with her friends too busy rehearsing
to have time to share adventures with her. So Dolores does what she
does best and takes matters into her own hands. But can she prove
to Moustro Provolone that there's a place for every kind of voice
in the chorus?

four outcast seventh-graders who try to end name-calling in their
school.　The Misfits is now widely read and studied in middle
