Cheerleader was a Book-of-the-Month Club selection, optioned by Twentieth Century-Fox, made into an NBC sitcom pilot, and became a best-seller beloved by generations of readers.
p/pThe reprint of this classic coming-of-age novel
features a foreword by English professor Ann V. Norton, who writes, "As Snowy grows in mind and heart, she realizes she must develop her own self. That this realization happens in a small town in the 1950s to a cheerleader, symbol of a girl's simultaneous success and subordination, makes it
all the more powerful.
The Cheerleader transcends its setting to portray a young person's timeless yearning for a full and satisfying life."
Snowy, a sequel to The Cheerleader, has recently been rereleased by Frigate Books. Fans have designed a website devoted to Ruth Doan MacDougall's work.
