Descripción: Now an animated series from Paramount + & Nickelodeon!“Big Nate is funny, big time.”—Jeff Kinney, author of Diary of a Wimpy KidThe sixth Big Nate book in the New York Times bestselling series by Lincoln Peirce! Perfect for fans of the hilarious Diary of Wimpy Kid series.A laugh-out-loud must-read illustrated novel starring the one and only cartooning genius, king of detention, and Cheez Doodle connoisseur, Nate Wright. Nate’s not having the best of luck . . . in fact; he’s not having ANY luck. But with a little boost thanks to Chad’s lucky foot, suddenly good luck is everywhere Nate turns! Nate’s in the zone! But how long will it last?Includes a sneak peek to the seventh Big Nate novel!From BooklistStill suffering through sixth grade at P. S. 38, Nate Wright is up to his usual entertaining tricks in the sixth book of Peirce’s best-selling series. He jumps on (and breaks) a beanbag chair in the library, repeatedly hits his head with an empty water bottle, and draws a steady stream of irreverent cartoons. For the first half of the book, Nate embarrasses himself in a variety of ways: getting stage fright in front of the entire school, earning a “D” in social studies, and being mocked by the school’s most popular guy. But things turn around with the apparent help of his friend’s good-luck charm, and Nate mends his reputation and the hurt feelings of his band’s lead singer. Peirce focuses on Nate’s school challenges rather than on his home life, but there is a sweet moment when Nate’s father confesses that he wasn’t a stellar sixth-grade student either. Peirce’s drawings are amusing but also surprisingly expressive, capturing everything from the agony of facing a teacher’s tantrum to the joy of a surprise free period. Grades 3-6. --Abby NolanFrom the Back CoverBig Nate is in the zone!Nate's luck can't get any worse . . . until everything changes. All of a sudden, he can do no wrong! But why? And how long will it last?About the AuthorLincoln Peirce (pronounced "purse") is a cartoonist/writer and New York Times bestselling author of the hilarious Big Nate book series (www.bignatebooks.com), now published in twenty-five countries worldwide and available as ebooks and audiobooks and as an app, Big Nate: Comix by U! He is also the creator of the comic strip Big Nate. It appears in over three hundred U.S. newspapers and online daily at www.gocomics.com/bignate. Lincoln's boyhood idol was Charles Schulz of Peanuts fame, but his main inspiration for Big Nate has always been his own experience as a sixth grader. Just like Nate, Lincoln loves comics, ice hockey, and Cheez Doodles (and dislikes cats, figure skating, and egg salad). His Big Nate books have been featured on Good Morning America and in the Boston Globe, the Los Angeles Times, USA Today, and the Washington Post. He has also written for Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon. Lincoln lives with his wife and two children in Portland, Maine.
