The best description for this is middle school angst in graphic novel form. Penelope "Peppi" has a list of "Cardinal Rules for Surviving School" as she begins her first day at a new school. Things immediately go wrong when she trips into a nerdy boy named Jaime and then ends up shoving him when he tries to help her. She really wants to apologize but doesn't have the nerve to approach him. She eventually settles in with a group of friends in the Art Club. But Art Club is in conflict with Science Club, of which Jaime is a member, and things rapidly escalate. Things are ultimately resolved (no spoilers).
