Who's Afraid of a Giant Wheel?

At school, Noorie is sassy. She does not listen to her teachers and bosses over her schoolmates. At home, Noorie is a slave to her neighbour and friend, Tina. Whatever Tina wants, Noorie does. Tina's friendship helps Noorie ignore the fact that her marks are bad, her teachers don't seem to like her and that her father and mother are not getting along any more. Yet when everything falls apart, and even Tina rejects her, who will Noorie turn to?
