David Greenberg is getting ready to start the 6th grade and is nervous, but he has his best friend Elliot by his side as well as his passsion for for uploading videos to YouTube, which star him and his hamster Hammy imitating the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, whom David idolizes. Then things fall apart his best friend becomes his enemy, his only friend becomes a new kid at school who happens to be a girl, he's tortured by bullies, etc. THis book made me laugh so hard, yet feel so bad for David. Middle School in general is hard for anyone and Gephart wrote such a believable character in David that he's completerly relatable. This would be a great book for a reluctant reader because the chapters are short, but manage to convey so much meaning.
