Mikey and Margalo are two of a kind, not fitting into one particular junior high clique, and considering themselves to be in the unpopular crowd. Their travails include trying to shake up athletic tradition by circulating a petition to allow seventh graders to play on school sports teams, as well as getting the principal to allow them to sell things at school events to save money for a trip to Mikey’s grandmother’s house in California.
