Sara,
If you love Big Nate, you will love this addition to the series。 He and his friends deal with school, baseball season, and even go to the beach in this next installment of the beloved graphic novel series。 Thanks Net Galley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the temporary copy to review。
Dani Baskette,
I read this book with my 10 year old。 He's an advanced reader and enjoyed the humor in this book。 He did have other Big Nate books in his library so he was excited to be able to read a book that's not been published yet。 I really enjoy Nate, and him getting up to his shenanigans whether it's having locker slob wars, trying to make his teachers laugh, dealing with crushes, and end of the year pranks。 Also, can we say grandma is the real hero of the story! 🤣Good, clean humor for the whole family。 I read this book with my 10 year old。 He's an advanced reader and enjoyed the humor in this book。 He did have other Big Nate books in his library so he was excited to be able to read a book that's not been published yet。 I really enjoy Nate, and him getting up to his shenanigans whether it's having locker slob wars, trying to make his teachers laugh, dealing with crushes, and end of the year pranks。 Also, can we say grandma is the real hero of the story! 🤣Good, clean humor for the whole family。 Loved it!

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 Note: I received a digital copy from Edelweiss。The “Big Nate” comics never fail to make me smile or laugh, and this is easily the best collection in the series。This book shows Nate and the many predicaments we have seen multiple times, such as dealing with his baseball team’s new name and the usual Prank Day shenanigans。 However, he also tries to save his favorite teacher, Mr。 Rosa, from being fired, along with dealing with a kid named Kyle, who Nate challenges to a “Slob-Off” after learning abo Note: I received a digital copy from Edelweiss。The “Big Nate” comics never fail to make me smile or laugh, and this is easily the best collection in the series。This book shows Nate and the many predicaments we have seen multiple times, such as dealing with his baseball team’s new name and the usual Prank Day shenanigans。 However, he also tries to save his favorite teacher, Mr。 Rosa, from being fired, along with dealing with a kid named Kyle, who Nate challenges to a “Slob-Off” after learning about Kyle’s locker being messier than his own。The art always looks better and better as the books go on, and this book is no exception。 The jokes were also very humorous, and the stories, even the ones we have seen before, still felt fresh and new。 This is a great book for anyone who is a fan of the “Big Nate” books and comics。⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 。。。more

A new selection of the comic strips – well, while nobody buys or doesn't buy any of these books on a review's say-so, it is helpful to know if this is the strip or the book-of-the-TV-programme series。 Here, Nate is disgusted at having similarities with a certain social studies teacher, hates the results when his comic shop starts sponsoring the ball team, and loathes the idea the art teacher gets cut from the curriculum。 It's all just Nate Wright fun as expected – and a strong four stars as expe A new selection of the comic strips – well, while nobody buys or doesn't buy any of these books on a review's say-so, it is helpful to know if this is the strip or the book-of-the-TV-programme series。 Here, Nate is disgusted at having similarities with a certain social studies teacher, hates the results when his comic shop starts sponsoring the ball team, and loathes the idea the art teacher gets cut from the curriculum。 It's all just Nate Wright fun as expected – and a strong four stars as expected。 。。。more

Ag,
This is hilarious, filled with so many laugh-out-loud and snort-out-loud moments! It reads just like all the previous Big Nate graphic novels, it is fun, it is entertaining, it is silly, it is fast-paced, it is a real page turner that will keep any kid glued to the pages。 Drawings are consistent with the previous books, text goes hand in hand also, it is perfect。 I’m absolutely sure every elementary school and middle grade age kid who gets this book will enjoy it。
Kripa Kavasseri,
I downloaded this book for my 10 year old son who has read several of the previous Big Nate comic books。 He finished this one in one day。 I also looked over his shoulder and read a few panels that he pointed out to me。 They were pretty funny! He says it’s not necessary for anyone to have read all the previous books to enjoy this one。 He really loved it and looks forward to more in the future。 Thank you #netgalley for providing the e-galley in return for an honest review。
Kaye,
Big Nate graphic novels are popular in my elementary school。 I have most of the series on the shelves and this will be a good addition。 The art work is always colorful and enhances the story。 Bit Nate is a perpetual 6th grader who loves hanging out with his friends and avoiding school work。 In this one he is upset that he has things in common with his teacher, has a messy locker challenge, team gets a new name, pulls a few pranks etc。 These are geared towards upper elementary school age kids 8-1 Big Nate graphic novels are popular in my elementary school。 I have most of the series on the shelves and this will be a good addition。 The art work is always colorful and enhances the story。 Bit Nate is a perpetual 6th grader who loves hanging out with his friends and avoiding school work。 In this one he is upset that he has things in common with his teacher, has a messy locker challenge, team gets a new name, pulls a few pranks etc。 These are geared towards upper elementary school age kids 8-12。 I find them mindless fun and there are always a few lines in there to entertain a grown-up reader。 Thank you to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the temporary ARC and I am leaving a voluntary review。 。。。more
(Katie) Paperbacks,
I have read every one of the Big Nate books and enjoy every one of them。 I love the antics of Nate in middle school with his friends。 And love seeing the trouble he gets into with the adults。 I can't wait to read the next one in the series when it releases。Thank you to #netgalley for a copy of this book to read and review。 I have read every one of the Big Nate books and enjoy every one of them。 I love the antics of Nate in middle school with his friends。 And love seeing the trouble he gets into with the adults。 I can't wait to read the next one in the series when it releases。Thank you to #netgalley for a copy of this book to read and review。 。。。more
