Humourous Advice - 26 Tips for Surviving Grade 6
Becky Lennox wrote the book on getting through grade six, but these aren't the kinds of tips that come from school books or teachers...
Forget social studies, math, and science - this hilarious new novel is about surviving some of the real problems tween girls face in the sixth grade: jealous friends, first crushes, embarrassing parents, and annoying older brothers.
This
honest and heartwarming
novel follows 11-year-old Becky Lennox through the course of the school
year, as she survives one challenge after another - feeling left out,
lovestruck, lonely, and loony, but learning a little
something each time.
Perfect for girlfriends, comedy lovers, and reluctant readers.
"Delightful and spot on for the middle grade experience..." (Just Deb book blog).
"[A] simply told yet fast-paced and colourful blend of humour and drama....This book will certainly appeal to female readers." (CM Magazine)
