Part of the Jake the Fake series
Jake fakes his way through school and family surprises. Can he keep his cool?
Jake, a budding comedian at Music and Arts Academy, faces a new challenge: impressing a girl by pretending to be a master chef and barber. At home, his mom's pregnancy news means he's about to become the middle child, a role he's not thrilled about. As the King of Cool, Jake must navigate these changes without losing his chill. With good friends and plenty of laughs, can Jake juggle his fake personas and family dynamics, or will his comedic facade crumble?
For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate comes the third book in this laugh-out-loud series about a class clown faking his way through middle school from comedian and film star Craig Robinson, #1 New York Times bestselling author Adam Mansbach, and NAACP History Maker recipient and cartoonist Keith Knight. Life couldn’t be better for Jake. He’s a student at Music and Arts Academy and a budding comedian, and he finally put an end to his fake-ster ways . . . or so he thought. There’s a new girl at school, and Jake would do anything to impress her, even pretending to be a master chef. And a world-renowned barber? But at home, Jake is less impressed with his mom’s news: she’s pregnant. Now Jake has to fake being happy about becoming the Middle Child. The King of Cool is about to drop his chill. Luckily, he has good friends and laughs on his side, along with more than two hundred illustrations–all about him!
