Middle school challenges Ethan to fit in without losing himself.
Ethan just wants to blend in at middle school, but his outdated phone and worn-out backpack make him stand out. His best friend, Ricky, is drawn to pranksters, leaving Ethan feeling out of place. A glimmer of hope appears when he meets Aiden, a new student who shares his love for the card game Bio Battle. Yet, as friendships shift, Ethan must navigate the tricky social terrain to find where he truly belongs. Can he stay true to himself amidst the chaos of middle school cliques and expectations?
Perfect for fans of Jeff Kinney and Terri Libensen, A Kid Like Me is a timely exploration about finding your place in the ever-evolving social landscape that is middle school, written and illustrated by award-winning graphic novelist Norm Feuti. Ethan doesn’t want to stand out, he just wants to fit in. But fitting in is tough when your peers call out your ancient cell phone, busted backpack, and discount clothing. To make matters worse, his best friend, Ricky, insists on hanging out with a group of guys who just don’t get him . . . they’re more interested in playing pranks than playing his favorite card game Bio Battle. Things start looking up, though, when Ethan befriends Aiden, a new kid in school, but it’s only matter of time before even that goes sideways.Can Ethan figure out where he belongs without forgetting who he is and who he wants to be?
