The eighth book in the New York Times bestselling Emmie & Friends series, told from the alternating POVs of popular Anthony and timid Leah as they grapple with a bullying incident at school.
Friends. Bullies.
MIDDLE SCHOOL
Anthony is TPFW (Too Popular For Words), loves science, hates writing.
Leah is a super-shy nerd who's finally making friends of her own.
What could they have in common?
A lot more than they thought, as it turns out!
But then one day they witness Anthony's teammates bullying a sixth grader. What happens next could cement their new friendship-or blow it up forever.
New York Times bestseller Terri Libenson is back with a story about unexpected friendship and everyday bravery.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
PRAISE FOR BECOMING BRIANNA: "Lacing the dialogue with spirited banter and laying on the life lessons with a light touch... All ends with party time . . . plus a climactic hora exuberant enough to leave everyone, readers included, smiling." - ALA Booklist
"Readers will relate to Brianna's attempts to manage her stress load as well as her insecurity and flaws as she works to form and maintain friendships." - School Library Journal
PRAISE FOR JUST JAIME: "A delightful tale that navigates the precarious ebb and flow of friendship dynamics." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Libenson perfectly portrays the gaslighting and passive aggression that can be the hallmarks of middle-school relationships turned sour, and readers struggling with cracking of beloved friendships will find reassurance in the book's 'this too shall pass' sentiment." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
PRAISE FOR POSITIVELY IZZY: "Libenson captures middle-school dramas-family, friendships, crushes, stereotypes, grades, self-discovery-with candor, fast pacing, and authentic, relatable characters. Positively satisfying." - The Horn Book
"Libenson nicely touches on classic middle-grade tropes, such as shifting friendships, crushes, and developing confidence. A poignant twist ending adds a heartening note to an already charming story." - ALA Booklist
PRAISE FOR INVISIBLE EMMIE: "This is middle grade fiction at its best. A fantastic debut novel with plenty of laughs and tons of heart. INVISIBLE EMMIE is unforgettable!" - - Lincoln Peirce, New York Times-bestselling creator of Big Nate
"Clever, funny work by a great cartoonist. Reading INVISIBLE EMMIE sums up middle school: You laugh, you cry, you get beaned in the head with a volleyball." - - Stephanie Perkins, internationally bestselling author of Anna and the French Kiss and Lola and the Boy Next Door
