Bookroo's summary

Iggy feels overshadowed by his family's fame until his insect podcast unexpectedly goes viral after he embarrasses his sister. As sibling rivalry turns into an online war, Iggy must navigate the tricky balance between personal success and family loyalty. How much of his private life is he willing to expose for fame? Dive into Iggy's World, where the stakes are high, and the internet never forgets.

From the publisher

Fourteen-year-old Iggy comes from a famous family. Well, sort of. His dad directs a cheesy sci-fi Web series, his mom writes for it, and his sister has a successful YouTube channel. Iggy doesn’t have the acting bug, so he feels like an outsider. Wanting to prove himself, Iggy starts his own podcast about what interests him: insects.

But it’s not until Iggy embarrasses his famous sister on air that his podcast really takes off. He’s thrilled with his own success, until she fires back. Now it’s all-out war.

Iggy’s World is an exploration of the age-old problem artists face: when we find inspiration from our real lives, what will our friends and family think? And, of course, just how much of our private lives do we really want to reveal online?
