In "Fat Cat" by Robin Brande, the story follows Cat Peters, a high school senior who takes on a challenge to transform her lifestyle by losing weight over the summer while participating in an unconventional science experiment. As she embraces healthier living, Cat discovers unexpected friendships, learns more about herself, and gains a deeper understanding of body image and self-acceptance. Throughout her journey, Cat navigates the complexities of teenage life, including romance and the pressures of fitting in, ultimately realizing that true confidence comes from within and that self-worth is not defined by appearance.
