Bookroo's summary

Meet Nate Wright, an eleven-year-old with a knack for breaking school records—in detentions. Armed with a No. 2 pencil and boundless ambition, Nate navigates the chaos of middle school, from overzealous teachers to questionable cafeteria food. Despite the odds, he dreams of becoming a renowned cartoonist. Will his big dreams survive the daily grind of school life? Dive into Nate's world of humor and mischief, where every day is a new adventure.

From the publisher

Big Nate is big news! Big Nate books have sold more than 4.5 million copies and been on the New York Times best-seller list for more than a year. Enjoy more than two years of Sunday cartoons, portraying the colorful life of Nate Wright. This spunky eleven-year-old holds the school record for detentions and is in little chance of losing that distinction, but that doesn’t stop him from dreaming big! He’s a self-described genius, a sixth-grade renaissance man, and a full-fledged believer in his future as a cartoonist. Equipped with a No. 2 pencil and the unshakable belief that he is No. 1, Nate fights a daily battle against overzealous teachers, undercooked cafeteria food, and all-around conventionality.
