All American Girl

A Teen Heroine Like No Other

All American Girl by Meg Cabot, published in 2003 by MacMillan, is a witty, feel-good novel about an ordinary girl who accidentally becomes extraordinary. Bursting with humor, heart, and teenage charm, this is a story of self-discovery, unexpected fame, and first love.

From Misfit to National Sensation

Samantha Madison is just your average, artsy teen trying to survive high school in Washington, D.C. But everything changes the day she foils an assassination attempt on the President of the United States. Overnight, Sam is hailed as a national hero, catapulted into the spotlight, and appointed as the teen ambassador to the U.N.—not exactly what she had in mind for sophomore year.

Life, Love, and the Unexpected

As Sam struggles to balance her new responsibilities with her crush on the President’s son, she begins to question who she really is and what she wants. With her trademark blend of sass and sincerity, Meg Cabot crafts a coming-of-age tale that is as empowering as it is entertaining.

Perfect for Fans of Smart, Funny YA

All American Girl is ideal for readers who love strong female leads, laugh-out-loud moments, and a touch of romance. A true Cabot classic that still resonates with teens today.
