Nate Wright is a great cartoonist. Unfortunately, at his school, P.S. 38, this can't help him at all. One day his most hated teacher Mrs. Godfrey gives him a school project to work on--with his know-it-all archenemy Gina!!!! They have to write an assignment on Benjamin Franklin. Also, Nate is the captain of the Fleeceball team, but he misses the choosing of the teams and forgets to tell the Coach his team name. So... Gina ends up on his team and chooses the team name for him! Now Nate is on the Kuddle Kittens with an annoying girl who is TERRIBLE at Fleeceball--and the SPOFFY trophy is at stake! Will Nate manage to win the trophy? And will he ruin Gina's spotless academic record?
This is a cool book. There are a lot of pictures. It is kind of like a graphic novel/novel. Also in the front and back they have activities like mazes and comics and a quiz and a code. Also inside the book there are a lot more comics. This book is really funny!!!! 4 stars!
