Plot Jenny knows one thing-that the new girl Elise is
the one stealing other peoples lunch money to buy candy. Soon, since no one is confessing, the entire class gets punished. Nothings Fair! But eventually Jenny and her class learns that most things aren’t fair for Elise either. Elise is on a super strict diet, and soon she starts losing weight.
