Beschreibung

From Rex Ogle and Dave Valeza,
the creators of Four
Eyes, comes the second
book in this humorous and heartfelt middle-school memoir trilogy.

It's time to face facts!

On the first day of seventh grade, Rex encounters a bump in the
road – a big angry pimple right in the center of his forehead.
And this is only the beginning of his problems. What follows
is a frustrating battle with stubborn acne, body odour, and other
embarrassments of puberty. Still struggling with a home life edging
on the poverty line, Rex can't afford to buy the acne medication
or deodorant he needs, and bullies are noticing Rex's awkward
transformation. On top of it all, things have gotten weird with
his friends, making Rex feel like he can't do or say anything right.
So far, seventh grade stinks!

  • A beautiful coming-of-age graphic memoir
  • Includes heartwarming and funny arcs that perfectly portrays
    the highs and lows of school
  • Perfect for children aged 8+
