Incredible book for kids entering or in middle school. (can appeal to younger readers, but I'm not sure they'll even want it. This was a great book and I recommend it to anyone who will listen. It is about a boy and his journey through middle school. Please read it: also, great quarantine book!
Happy reading!

This book makes me think about giving friendships a second chance, especially if the person used to be my best friend. This book also makes me think about the good in each day especially when things don't go well. It also makes me be appreciative about my family and my mom, dad, and sister.

This book was just OK

It was about a kid named David that’s going into sixth grade. He makes youtube videos with his hamster and when he starts middle school he meets a girl that he likes who shares the videos with all her friends. Eventually, the videos become really popular and he becomes famous. I didn’t learn anything from this book so I don’t recommend it. Also, this book says nothing about how to survive middle school.

It was not very interesting and I have ADHD.... so I skipped the middle of it and just continued reading from the 5th to last chapter. I did not miss much, and understood most of it even though I did not read part of it. So, not a book you need to read.

You don't have to know ANYTHING about how to work a camera or YouTube.(though you should)

I liked that David tries to fit in sixth grade, and succeeds, though not in the way he thought... It's kinda sad. Okay, quite a bit sad. Though there also is an element of love. What you should expect is Surprise, mystery, love, and depression. If any are offensive, don't choose this book.

This book was just OK

I did not like the book because it had no exciting events and there was no climax. When I thought that after he got famous, he would not get bullied anymore, nothing changed. He was still bullied. When David’s mom wrote to him about her coming, that also made no excitement.

David makes awesome videos with his BFF, Elliott and Hammy. He just wishes his mom could see them. His mom had moved away a few years before and has no access to internet or to phones.
After a 'major' friendship issue with Elliott.
Before you know it, the school year starts and these things happen:
- David finally found a new friend
-He also gets bullied by Elliott's new BFF
- He gets caught by his sister---- he added the 'Acne Forecast' to his videos and she was the person with the acne... BTW, he got in BIG trouble

This book was one of the best books I've read

Thumbs up!

Omigod! This book was amazing. I wouldn't say that some of these things are things that you need to worry about when you go to middle school, so don't worry! But this book is still amazing and there are characters you can relate to. It's hilarious and has a really funny plot line. I couldn't put the book down and I stayed up reading an hour past when I was supposed to be in bed! ;-). And I only half regretted the decision the following morning when I was sooo tired! The book was just that good! I wish I had gotten the book myself instead of having to borrow my brother's!!

This book was just OK

This book made me think more about friendship.

I think this book was OK because there is a lot of tv shows that are modern,but it didn't really have to do anything with being Jewish

I like this book because it seems like real life but is funny. David needs to get rich quick- but how do you do that when you are in middle school? I recommend this book.

Author of How to Survive Middle School and Death by Toilet Paper

“I love what I do – writing, enjoying time with family and friends, writing, hanging out at the local library, writing, riding my bike … oh, and writing!”

When Donna was about eight or nine years old, she wrote her first story, “Happy-Go-Lucky.” It was about a horse, and Donna’s mom loved it! From that time on, Donna decided she wanted to become a writer.

Donna loves to write, but she also loves to read. When asked what things are the most important to her, Donna replied:

Family and friends
Good health
Being kind
Creativity
Being a vegetarian
Trying to understand myself and others
