A humorous and heartwarming
middle-grade graphic memoir about fitting in, facing bullies, and
finding the right pair of glasses.
Sixth grade isn't as great as Rex thought it would be. He's the
only kid who hasn't had a growth spurt, and the bullies won't let
him forget it. His closest friend is unreliable, at best. And
there's a cute girl in his class who he can't stop thinking about.
With so much going on, everything is a blur –including Rex's
vision! So when he discovers that he needs glasses, and his family
can only afford the ugliest pair
in the store, any hope Rex had of fitting in goes
completely out of focus.
In this true coming-of-age story, Rex has his sights set on surviving
sixth grade, but now he's got to find a way to do it with
glasses, no friends and a family that just doesn't get it!
