Middle School Misadventures
Book Hero Magic created this recommendation. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! IS THIS YOUR NEXT READ?
From debut author/illustrator Jason Platt comes a full-color middle grade graphic novel with the spirit of Ferris Bueller and Calvin and Hobbes, about one boy's madcap quest to come up with a talent and avoid extra work
Newell is always getting into trouble—whether it's showing up tardy for most of the year or mocking his teachers while authoritarian Mr. Todd is standing right behind him. When disaster strikes and Newell finds himself on track to summer school, he's given one last minute option to get out of it: participating in the upcoming Talent Show. The only problem is that he doesn't technically have a talent to show. Yikes.
In this fun and imaginative full-colour graphic novel, Jason Platt sends a fast-talking, daydreaming, middle school kid on a desperate quest to pull off a great show and save his summer.
