Reach for this book when your child is making a major school transition or feels overwhelmed by the 'social survival' aspect of middle school.

Through a diary-style format filled with humorous illustrations, the story explores themes of anxiety, resilience, and finding one's inner strength. It is a perfect choice for children ages 9 to 13 who enjoy fast-paced, funny stories that normalize the awkwardness of growing up. Parents will appreciate how it uses humor to de-escalate the stress of school social dynamics while encouraging kids to embrace their own unique brand of heroism.
