Many of our young patrons will find Aloha very relatable。 We will consider adding this title to our JGraphic Novel collection at our library。 That is why we give this book 5 stars。 。。。more
Jessi,
We get the span from the end of the school year and prank days, through the summer, and some back-to-school shopping。 As usual, a fantastic look at the life of Nate with a bit more Dee Dee and not as much Gina (I wish we saw more between those two; the crossover is always fun; it would have bumped up my reading score for sure)。 One of the more interesting stories is that, while working as an intern at the comic book store, Nate sees Randy shoplifting。 Randy, of course, being one of Nate's bullie We get the span from the end of the school year and prank days, through the summer, and some back-to-school shopping。 As usual, a fantastic look at the life of Nate with a bit more Dee Dee and not as much Gina (I wish we saw more between those two; the crossover is always fun; it would have bumped up my reading score for sure)。 One of the more interesting stories is that, while working as an intern at the comic book store, Nate sees Randy shoplifting。 Randy, of course, being one of Nate's bullies。 Nate calls for help, but when none is forthcoming, he tackles (literally) Randy。 This also spins off a few strips where we discover yet another job of School Photo guy as mall cop。 Of course, Nate is still interested in romance。 He goes on a date with one girl, tires the pencil trick with two others, and then works his charm on the beach。 Spoiler, none of them work。 We get glimpses of other summer activities such as busking with Enslave the Mollusk and once again playing on the Cupcakes baseball team。 。。。more
Ron,
Another fun collection of Big Nate comics。 Nate is chasing after Daisy, but things do not go well romance wise。 Nate does get his dream job, working at the Comix shop, and manages to nab a shoplifter。 Then Teddy manages to give Nate a haircut! That was a sight to see! And Prank Day was fun! In all, a fun collection!Thanks Netgalley for the chance to read this title!
Jennyfer,
This is a fun collection of comics featuring Big Nate and all of his friends, as they navigate the minefield of sixth grade。 A little bit Peanuts, a little bit Calvin and Hobbes and a whole lot of unique Big Nate style, this one kept my kiddo entertained for ages during Lockdown。*I recieved a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*
Genevieve Trono,
The Big Nate book series has been a favorite in our household for some time now。 It doesn't matter how many of them we have read, when we see a new Big Nate book is on the horizon, the excitement is palpable。I would equate the Big Nate series to the kind of books I want to curl up with when I want to do some easy comfort reading。 They are predictable in a good way, take on new relatable topics and themes for middle-grade readers and always provide a laugh。 Our middle-school-aged son read this on The Big Nate book series has been a favorite in our household for some time now。 It doesn't matter how many of them we have read, when we see a new Big Nate book is on the horizon, the excitement is palpable。I would equate the Big Nate series to the kind of books I want to curl up with when I want to do some easy comfort reading。 They are predictable in a good way, take on new relatable topics and themes for middle-grade readers and always provide a laugh。 Our middle-school-aged son read this one with me and gave this a big thumbs up。 The short stories made it perfect for bedtime reading, and like always, his favorite characters were up to new adventures that were very fun and enjoyable to read along with。 Thank you to Andrews McMeel publishing for my gifted copy。 。。。more
Renee Winter,
Love Big Nate! The mini stories make it great for night time reading for the grandson and I。 Highly entertaining as always。 Kudos on another hit Lincoln Peirce! Thanks #netgalley and #AndrewsMcMeetPublishing for the eARC in exchange for an honest review。

Theediscerning,
Critique-proof, as usual。 There's never any let-up in the quality in these books, so once you're in you're in, and no online review is going to sway you otherwise。 There is some variation here, mind – the book opens with the narrative of Nate trying to have dates with a girl he likes that goes on so long and with such intensity we don't even get the double-sized, non-arc weekend strips interrupting it。 They're present and correct in the middle of adventures with hair removing friends, and a thef Critique-proof, as usual。 There's never any let-up in the quality in these books, so once you're in you're in, and no online review is going to sway you otherwise。 There is some variation here, mind – the book opens with the narrative of Nate trying to have dates with a girl he likes that goes on so long and with such intensity we don't even get the double-sized, non-arc weekend strips interrupting it。 They're present and correct in the middle of adventures with hair removing friends, and a theft at the comic store, but some things clearly take priority。 So is Nate going to grow up and get all hormonal with it? Don't be daft。 Some things never change。 。。。more
