Review quote
"Newell's story is filled with a building anxiety that will fill middle-schoolers with urgent suspense and the sweet relief of recognition."--Booklist "Bill Watterson-flavored artwork in full color makes this adventure entertaining and approachable even to novice graphic novel readers, yet Platt's humor is refreshingly distinct in both text and image."--BCCB Praise for Middle School Misadventures "This hilarious graphic novel is a great read for anyone in middle school or for adults who know someone that age."--School Library Connection Praise for Middle School Misadventures: Operation: Hat Heist! "This is a humorous tale of friendship and family that will appeal to readers who have graduated from Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants series or those who have not yet tried Jeff Kinney's Diary of a Wimpy Kid series."--School Library Connection "The humor is incredibly kid-friendly (fart jokes are rife). Appealing, sketchy cartoons that channel Calvin & Hobbes bring to life Newell's diverse, supportive, and quirky group of friends. Refreshingly, Platt depicts a loving, well-adjusted single-parent household. Platt's tale is a -keeper."--School Library Journal
