Summary
On the brink of adolescence, girls have a lot to deal with; a changing body, a flood of hormones, relentless judgement by her peers, even perhaps the stirrings of a first, unrequited crush. Although she's a lively, smart-lipped kid with plenty of courage and attitude, the truth is she feels as if she doesn't belong (and with a father known locally as "The Underpant King" who could blame her?) - but eventually Taylor must confront the truth - she is who she is. Despite frequent flights of fantasy where animals suddenly talk, and Egyptian mummies come to life, each episode is firmly anchored in reality - its core is truthful - and also very funny. MORTIFIED is a young girl's journey towards self-acceptance
