Reluctant reader Derek Fallon gets the meme treatment.

Together with his friends Carly, Matt, and Umberto, Derek has fun learning about all the cool aspects of memes. But will their fun last?

The main character has trouble reading so he illustrates his vocabulary words, which are featured throughout the text in cartoon form. Terrific reluctant-reader appeal.

Industry Reviews

My Life as a Book:

A 2011 Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year

Give this to kids who think they don't like reading. It might change their minds.
Booklist, starred review

A kinder, gentler Wimpy Kid with all the fun and more plot.
Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Sure to engage fans of Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid books as well as those looking for a spunky, contemporary boy with a mystery to solve.
School Library Journal

My Life as a Stuntboy:

Another fun, emotionally resonant read for the Wimpy Kid set and beyond.
Kirkus Reviews

A fast-moving plot and relatable protagonist make this stand-alone sequel a good choice for boys who, like Derek, would rather reach for a TV remote or game controller than a book.
School Library Journal

Fans of the first will be utterly delighted by this sequel and anxious to see what Jake will turn up as next.
The Bulletin

This is a great package for kids, especially those like Derek who don't think they like to read.
