By H.N. Kowitt
PRMS paperback 213 pages
genre: YA humor, realistic fiction
Kind of a goofy little book, but with a good sense of middle school peer pressure, friendship, identity issues. Danny Shine is put on the "loser list" in the girls' bathroom by nasty bully Chantal. He and his best friend (major geek) Jasper try to remove it, but Danny ends up in detention with the hardened middle school crowd. One bad choice leads to another and Danny has to figure out how to make it end. I'll use this for sixth grade book club. (Danny is a seventh grader, but a lot of the issues are elementary-school mature.) Lots of comics, graphic novels, and other geek themes.
