5.0 out of 5 stars Long awaited SUCCESS! March 21, 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I preordered this book for my son who has read the whole Big Nate series. He was anxiously awaiting its arrival on release day... as soon as he stepped off the bus he asked if I had the book! By this morning, he had almost finished the book and asked me to look online to see if I could preorder the new upcoming title!
My son is 8 and has enjoyed these books for a couple years and has reread them many times. He is an avid reader. If you have a relucant reader, these books many be appealing to spark an interest in reading.

As a general rule, I pooh-pooh "graphic" novels. To me, that's a euphemism for comics (Archie, anyone?) and really, all kids should be reading LITERATURE!!! Read more
