Jake wouldn't worry about making it through sixth grade if he knew the all-star team he has behind his adventures. The laughs you'll have reading this book are definitely not fake! Jeffrey Brown, author of Lucy & Andy Neanderthal and Jedi Academy
Everything about this book is funny. OK, maybe not the page numbers. But the words and pictures are hilarious; I laughed until boogers came out of my nose. (Don't worry, I put them back.) Dave Barry, author of Worst Class Trip Ever
Jake showcases an unforgettable kid whose imagination will blow your mind. Essence
Robinson and Mansbach amp up the laughs in this wry novel. Booklist
