Tween Tuesday Review: I Funny

Jamie has a rough life, but cracking jokes helps him gets through the day. He deals with bullies, a family who doesn't understand him, and a new life that left him in a wheelchair.

Without telling anyone, he enters a stand-up comedian contest for kids in Long Island.  If he wins, he moves onto challenge kids from all over the state. Could he be funny enough to win?

My Thoughts: A great novel for fans of Wimpy Kid in a similar style. I enjoyed it so much, I'm using it as my middle school book club pick for this month. I really like Jamie - he's clever, quick witted, and of course funny. I grew to like his family - well most of them. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel to find out what happens next. 

Cover Thoughts: Cute

Mini Review: Grumpy Cat

The Grumpy Cat spreads doom and gloom.

The Good: Grumpy Cat hates the world - in an entertaining, amusing way. The pictures are great. The content various between pictures, lists, word hunt, pop quiz, connect the dots, posters, and a grumpy cat reading list. A quick easy read that made my cry with laughter!

The Bad: It was too short! I wanted more.
Verdict: Read it for a laugh.
