Soon to be a Netflix film—featuring Jennifer Aniston, Danielle Macdonald, and Dove Cameron, as well as a soundtrack from Dolly Parton! The movie tie-in edition of the #1 New York Times bestseller and feel-good YA of the year—about Willowdean Dixon, the fearless, funny, and totally unforgettable heroine who takes on her small town’s beauty pageant. Self-proclaimed fat girl Willowdean Dickson (dubbed “Dumplin’” by her former beauty queen mom) has always been at home in her own skin. Her thoughts on having the ultimate bikini body? Put a bikini on your body. With her all-American beauty best friend, Ellen, by her side, things have always worked . . . until Will takes a job at Harpy’s, the local fast-food joint. There she meets Private School Bo, a hot former jock. Will isn’t surprised to find herself attracted to Bo. But she is surprised when he seems to like her back. Instead of finding new heights of self-assurance in her relationship with Bo, Will starts to doubt herself. So she sets out to take back her confidence by doing the most horrifying thing she can imagine: entering the Miss Clover City beauty pageant—along with several other unlikely candidates—to show the world that she deserves to be up there as much as any girl does. Along the way, she’ll shock the hell out of Clover City—and maybe herself most of all.

Bohatý a prekvitajúci ostrov Keftiu postihne skaza. Obrovská vlna zaplaví ostrov. Slnko zakryje tmavý mrak... Ľudí trápi hlad, chlad a mor. Ani najstarší obyvatelia ostrova si nepamätali takú dlhú a krutú zimu... a jar stále neprichádzala. Hrôzostrašný výbuch sopky na ostrove Thalakrea spôsobil pohromu aj na ostrove Keftiu. Hnev bohov, namierený proti spupným majiteľom baní na ostrove Thalakrea, tak zasiahol aj obyvateľov Keftiu, ktorí žili v pokoji a uctievali prastaré zákony. Koho nezabila Obrovská vlna, toho skosila Pliaga, lebo živí nevládali pochovávať mŕtvych. Zostal tu vôbec niekto nažive? Môže toto byť ten krásny a bohatý ostrov, o ktorom mu rozprávala Pirra, dcéra najvyššej kňažky ostrova Keftiu? Tieto otázky si kladie Hylas, keď sa plaví k pobrežiu. Ani pochybnosti ho neodradia od toho, aby na spustošenom ostrove zostal a našiel Pirru a levie mláďa.

Cicciottella, sgraziata a trochu neistá, Victoria Dawson sa nikdy necítila na úrovni svojej rodiny, ktorá bola tak snobská a povrchná. Od detstva sa naučila znášať pohľady nespokojnosti matky a nepríjemné komentáre otca o svojich krivkách, a svoje sklamania utápala v zmrzline a sladkostiach, zmierujúc sa s tým, že žije v tieni svojej sestry Grace, ktorá bola tak krásna, že sa blížila k dokonalosti. Napriek tomu práve v sestre Victoria nachádza nečakanú spojenkyni: aj keď sú odlišné, sú si tak podobné, že si vytvárajú hlboký vzťah bezpodmienečnej lásky a vzájomného rešpektu, pričom sa stávajú bližšími, než si kedy predstavovali. Až do dňa, keď sa Victoria rozhodne opustiť Los Angeles a svoju rodinu, aby sa presťahovala do New Yorku. Tu, ďaleko od všetkých, môže konečne byť osobou, ktorou vždy túžila byť, a začať odznova. Nájde si prácu ako učiteľka na jednej z najlepších súkromných škôl v meste a, bez ohľadu na nedostatok podpory od rodičov, sa po prvýkrát cíti šťastná a naplnená. Ale keď jej Grace oznámi, že sa chce zosobášiť s egocentrickým a narcistickým mužom, ktorý je presnou kópiou ich otca, Victoria je nútená vrátiť sa do Kalifornie, aby ochránila sestru pred zlým manželstvom a konečne čelila svojej rodine.
