MY THOUGHTS:

I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Once again, Lincoln Peirce nails it! Everything outlined in this book perfectly depicts the crushes, icky, gross love interests of kids at this age and Peirce does this with fantastic humor that is fun, zany and often reminiscent of times for adults when they were this age. Young readers will love to relate to Nate and his friends. I wouldn’t limit this book to just kids though, there’s an appeal to it for adults!

I loved so many strips in the book, like summer school fears, new kids at school, summer hijinks… Nate is loveable because he’s relatable, in a fun often-times silly way. It’s great reading aimed at making you laugh. I love Nate!

I gave this book:
