Chi-Chi Ekeh has one huge problem: She keeps having crushes on rich white boys who have no idea she exists. Enter Flip Henderson, the most popular boy at school, who receives Chi-Chi's private video proposal to go to senior prom. But when Flip rejects Chi-Chi in front of their entire class, what happens next is completely unexpected: Chi-Chi - shy nerd and scholarship student - switches bodies with Flip. Suddenly, Chi-Chi is 6'1" and cool, while Flip gets a crash course on Chi-Chi's life - that is, k-pop, hair-braiding, and being a poor kid of colour at a rich white private school. With graduation looming and their body swaps lasting longer and longer, Chi-Chi and Flip must form the most unlikely friendship their school has ever seen. But will they survive senior year? And, most importantly, can they find a way back to themselves? From bestselling author of Check, Please! comes Flip, a thrilling and fantastical tale about self-acceptance, black girlhood, and how walking a mile in someone else's shoes can teach you how to finally see yourself.

The New York Times bestselling author Ngozi Ukazu returns with her first original graphic novel, a funny and heart-wrenching young adult story about a Black scholarship student who mysteriously switches bodies with her crush, a popular white jock. FLIP is Freaky Friday meets The Other Black Girl
