Summary: Nate has a problem, and his name is Breckenridge Puffington III. He’s a new kid at PS. 38, Nate’s school, and Principal Nichols is forcing Nate to be Breckenridge’s “buddy”. The only thing is, Breckenridge seems to be quite a nerd. He doesn’t like cartooning or sports like Nate, and instead enjoys FLOWERS. Yeah, you read that right. Flowers.

Let me just start off by saying that this book is one of my favorite books of the Big Nate series. This book has an amazing plot, interesting characters, and lots and lots of humor! Another reason why I love this book is because it incorporates little illustrations, and helps us visualize the book so well! I would definitely recommend this book to people who enjoy humorous and witty books! The story begins with Nate Wright, and how he created a cartooning club known as the doodlers. The school they go to (PS 38), has a major rivalry with their sister school: Jefferson Middle.

Max and the Midknights: Battle of the Bodkins is the second book in the series, this time with evil doppelgangers, even more magic, and tons of humor. This book is definitely one of my favorite books, because this book checks off all the good qualities a good book should have- action, humor, friendships, romance, and mystery! Another reason that I love this book so much is that it also incorporates little illustrations throughout the book, and even changes to a comic sometimes!

6th grade Nate Wright’s life is in the dumps. A friend ruins his homework AND grade, he gets in trouble for bursting a beanbag in the library, and his big shot at making a name for his band is ruined after he freezes on stage in front of the entire school. Yikes. Life just couldn’t get worse, now, could it? Yet all his luck is turned around by a broken foot off an action figure. Next thing you know, Nate just can’t stop winning! One lucky thing after another, Nate is the hot shot of the entire school, even making Marcus, the cool 7th grader look just a little bit dorky.
