Soon to be an animated series with Paramount+ and Nickelodeon!

Middle school is back in session and so is the New York Times bestselling series that's been brightening the funny papers for almost 30 years! Ready or not, some major laughs are due in Big Nate: The Gerbil Ate My Homework.

You’ve got to know where you stand to survive sixth grade, and Nate Wright’s found the perfect spot: right next to Sherman, the class gerbil. Can Nate’s furry friend bail him out of his latest homework jam with Mrs. Godfrey? Or will there be a paper trail leading straight to detention? Nate has no answers, but plenty of ideas—like directing a superhero movie starring the amazing Mega-Chad, inventing a new name for his pal Francis, and living up to his reputation as a P.S. 38 Prank Day legend.

Special final exam bonus question: Does Nate makes it to summer vacation? Find out in this collection of uproarious Big Nate comics! Middle school has never been funnier!

My ten year old son loves this book. Whenever I tell him to turn off electronics, this is his go to book. I love hearing him laugh and cackle... and then he reads to me the jokes. It’s pretty juvenile. LOL. Great investment for sure.

i think this is the best big nate book that i read.
however, i have a complaint.
this book was too expensive so if u dont wanna do the same mistake as me i suggest u get a sample on this book before buying from kindle
but other than that the book itself was okay.
no, better than okay.
like i said before, this was a very good book.
SPOILER ALERT! IF U DONT WANNA SEE A GOPD PART IN THIS BOOK STOP READING THIS REWIEW.
DONT SAY I DID NOT WARN U.
my favorite part was when nate dumped Gertrude.
thank u for reading thos review.

Fictional Comedy

Reviewed in Australia on September 28, 2020

I have been waiting for this particular book to come out! It is like every other Big Nate you will find (All of them are amazing)- I recommend this book for pre teens (9-12)- and older. If this is the first Big Nate you have read or will/want to read, it basicayy compiles of a 11-year-old boy (With a very big ego and head)- and his friends, family, cute girls and teachers of PS 38. I assure you if you are looking for fictiomal comedy or just regular comedy with every strip of the comic to laugh at, then this is the right book for you!

Other books usually start to falter in terms of comedy midway but this book was funny from start to the end. The arcs are really interesting and punchlines are really funny.

Ibrahim

Funny punchlines in every strip.

Reviewed in Canada on September 2, 2020

In my opinion, Peirce has made a series of characters that I can relate to. These new strips gave me the feeling I get from reading Peanuts or Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
