Mean Girls is a 2004 movie based on the book Queen Bees and Wannabes: Helping your daughter survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends and other Realities of Adolescence, by Rosalind Wiseman.
Cady Heron reckons she can handle just about anything. She was raised in the African bush by her scientist parents.
But when the 15-year old goes to public High School in the US for the first time she's in for a shock.
She's experienced the jungle, but that was nothing compared to surviving the teenage girls at the school.
This is psychological warfare but don't expect guns, tanks and missiles - this war is fought with gossip, boyfriends and cliques.
