A parent would reach for this book when their child is feeling the social weight of being the new kid or struggling to find their footing in a new environment. Written by a teen author who understands the middle school social hierarchy, this humorous adventure follows Jake as he navigates a move to a new state and a disastrously funny family camping trip. Through Jake's 'kid cards' and his attempts to regain his social status, the story addresses feelings of loneliness, the desire to belong, and the resilience needed when things do not go as planned. It is a lighthearted, highly illustrated choice for children aged 8 to 12 who need a reminder that everyone feels like an outsider sometimes and that humor is a powerful tool for survival.
