Summary

Meet Abbie Wu！ She’s about to start middle school and she’s totally in crisis。

Abbie Wu is in crisis—and not just because she’s stuck in a family that doesn’t quite get her or because the lunch ladies at school are totally corrupt or because everyone seems to have a “Thing” except her。 Abbie Wu is in crisis always。

Heavily illustrated and embarrassingly honest， Frazzled dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is， where she belongs， and how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up。 With Abbie’s flair for the dramatic and natural tendency to freak out， middle school has never seemed so nerve-racking！

Packed with hilarious black-and-white illustrations and doodles throughout， Frazzled takes readers through Abbie Wu’s hysterical middle school adventures。

This was so adorable。 The artwork is great and I am actually surprised by how much I liked the storyline。 We get to see Abbie Wu's struggle when she enters middle school。 Her frustration with trying to find her 'thing' is so relatable。 It reminded me of the times I used to stay awake all night before the beginning of new school year。 That feeling of impending doom and how everything seemed so dramatic in my head when in reality they were not。 I flew through this book and I totally enjoyed the ex This was so adorable。 The artwork is great and I am actually surprised by how much I liked the storyline。 We get to see Abbie Wu's struggle when she enters middle school。 Her frustration with trying to find her 'thing' is so relatable。 It reminded me of the times I used to stay awake all night before the beginning of new school year。 That feeling of impending doom and how everything seemed so dramatic in my head when in reality they were not。 I flew through this book and I totally enjoyed the experience。 It reminded me of the simple times and my breakdown on the most minor issues， it's completely laughable now。 Overall very fun and enjoyable read。 。。。more

This book is for those looking for a more girl centric Wimpy Kid。 This book fits right in。 We join our lead as a middle child in Middle School and she hates it！。 Everything about it。 She very much makes me think of Jan Brady。 She feels she doesn’t get enough attention as the middle child。 She is always worried and anxious about not being as good as her brother or as loved as her sister。 I get the problems， and see many kids who will not only enjoy this read but find themselves in it。 As for myse This book is for those looking for a more girl centric Wimpy Kid。 This book fits right in。 We join our lead as a middle child in Middle School and she hates it！。 Everything about it。 She very much makes me think of Jan Brady。 She feels she doesn’t get enough attention as the middle child。 She is always worried and anxious about not being as good as her brother or as loved as her sister。 I get the problems， and see many kids who will not only enjoy this read but find themselves in it。 As for myself， as an older sister， I just want to tell her to stop whining and enjoy your life。 #MGChallege - Debut 。。。more

Just a reread from a book I read ages ago。 It was okay， classic book of a newly middle school student who’s worried about fitting in， and stuff like that。 Definitely liked it more when I first read it， but I’m way older now so makes sense。 Just couldn’t really get through it， and had to skim through it to finish it， since my goal of reading this was just to revisit my childhood lol。 Recommend this for 5th grade， and maybe right before 6th grade， any older grades wouldn’t enjoy it as much in my o Just a reread from a book I read ages ago。 It was okay， classic book of a newly middle school student who’s worried about fitting in， and stuff like that。 Definitely liked it more when I first read it， but I’m way older now so makes sense。 Just couldn’t really get through it， and had to skim through it to finish it， since my goal of reading this was just to revisit my childhood lol。 Recommend this for 5th grade， and maybe right before 6th grade， any older grades wouldn’t enjoy it as much in my opinion。 。。。more

This comic book is about the life of a girl going to middle school for the first time。I found the story very silly。 Some of the things here were so rude， especially the way she talked about her teachers。

Book 125 of 2021Frazzled is about Abbie Wu， a girl with sixth-grade jitters， who has a deep desire to find her 'Thing' and survive 'The Middles' of life。The anxiety may seem a little overdone， but to me， it is realistic， well-done， and will help those headed into sixth grade know that they belong and that their feelings are normal and valid。 Book 125 of 2021Frazzled is about Abbie Wu， a girl with sixth-grade jitters， who has a deep desire to find her 'Thing' and survive 'The Middles' of life。The anxiety may seem a little overdone， but to me， it is realistic， well-done， and will help those headed into sixth grade know that they belong and that their feelings are normal and valid。 。。。more

The illustrations are fun， but the main character spent 90% of the book whining。

Holly Cannarelli ，

Weird book for a childI found this book interesting。 It is funny but I can't imagine a child finding it funny。 It's all about how miserable a certain child is on it doesn't end with her not being miserable。 Weird book for a childI found this book interesting。 It is funny but I can't imagine a child finding it funny。 It's all about how miserable a certain child is on it doesn't end with her not being miserable。 。。。more

This book was pretty good， I suppose。 It had some wholesome moments but it was rather annoying to read from the perspective of such a stressful person。

VERY cute， easy read with lots of drawings about a middle child navigating Middle School。Great to recommend for reluctant readers， lovers of graphic novels and middle children。 :）

I took this out of the library for my rising third grader and he loved it so much that I read it too。 It’s cute， funny， relatable and even though it features a sixth grader， the content is totally appropriate for elementary school kids。

Great for kids starting middle school - especially those who worry about fitting in or have a little extra anxiety。 Cute book that includes illustrations along with the writing for some more reluctant readers。

This book was so adorable！ Loved the art work。

This is a cute， funny book about a girl who struggles to fit in。 It's a good late elementary or middle grade book dealing with anxiety， conformity， and the cesspool that is middle school。 This is a cute， funny book about a girl who struggles to fit in。 It's a good late elementary or middle grade book dealing with anxiety， conformity， and the cesspool that is middle school。 。。。more
