Bookroo's summary
Danny Shine's life at Thorn Underwood Middle School takes a turn when he's caught erasing his name from the "Geek" list. Detention leads to unexpected fame as his drawing skills earn him a "bad boy" reputation. But when bullies involve him in a comic book theft, Danny faces a dilemma. Can he retrieve the stolen comic from his favorite store and sever ties with the bullies before it's too late? As the stakes rise, Danny must navigate the treacherous waters of middle school alliances and his own conscience. Will he find a way out without losing himself?
From the publisher
Diary of a Wimpy Kid watch out – Danny Shine and the other kids of Thorn Underwood Middle School aren’t bestsellers yet, but they’re on their way! When Danny gets caught trying to cross his name off the \u0022Geek\u0022 list in the girls’ bathroom, he’s sent to detention. Bullies torment him mercilessly – until they discover that Danny can draw. He enjoys his new \u0022bad boy\u0022 status, supplying tattoos and graffiti, until he’s unknowingly drawn into a theft. Turns out the bullies took a comic book from Danny’s favorite store. Can he steal it back before they get caught – and break off with the bullies before he gets in too deep?
