I Funny: A Middle School Story by Chris Grabenstein, James Patterson

4.0

I read this out loud with my ESL student and we enjoyed it. It's about a boy named Jamie who is in a wheelchair, and living in a new town (Long Island) with relatives. We don't know at first how he has come to be in this situation. His new step brother is a bully. He wants to be a comedian but he lives with a family who never laughs or smiles at his jokes. This book is light and funny, but it has a lot of heart to it.
