Summary: A collection of humorous autobiographical essays by the Academy Award-nominated actress and star of--Pitch At the ripe age of thirteen, she had already resolved to "keep the crazy inside my head where it belonged. Forever. But here's the thing about crazy: It. Wants. Out. "In Scrappy Little Nobody With her razor-sharp wit, Anna recounts the absurdities she's experienced on her way to and from the heart of pop culture as only she can₇from her unusual path to the performing arts (Vanilla Ice and baggy neon pants may have played a role) to her double life as a middle-school student who also starred on Broadway to her initial "dating experiments ("including only liking boys who didn't like her back) to reviewing a binder full of butt doubles to her struggle to live like an adult woman instead of a perpetual "man-child. "Enter Anna's world and follow her rise from "scrappy little nobody "to somebody who dazzles on the stage, the screen, and now the page₇with an electric, singular voice, at once familiar and surprising, sharp and sweet, funny and serious (well, not that serious).
