UNLESS YOU HAVE EXPRESS PERMISSION FROM RUSSELL WEINWRIGHT TO ACCESS HIS NOTEBOOK, DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER. SERIOUSLY, WE MEAN IT. <p/>Okay, if you are still with us, here is what we can share: Russell is a middle schooler; he excessively doodles; he has two best friends, Charlotte and Preston; he is not so great at sports; and he is pond scum. Nicknamed Swamp Kid by his classmates, Russell has algae for hair, a tree trunk for a right arm, and a carrot for a finger. Also, Russell's favorite meal is sunlight. Also, a frog lives in his arm. <p/>In this notebook, Russell details in both hilarious text and color illustrations (complete with ketchup stains!) what it's like to be different, to discover his true talents, to avoid the intense stare of Mr. Finneca (his suspicious science teacher who may also be a mad scientist), and to find humor in the everyday weird. <p/>This is <i>The Secret Spiral of Swamp Kid</i> by writer and illustrator Kirk Scroggs, and you'll never look at middle school the same way again.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Kirk Scroggs is one of my favorite author/illustrators." --Dav Pilkey, #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the Captain Underpants series <p/>"A comedic win with appeal for fans of Tom Angleberger and DC's Teen Titans Go!" --<i>Kirkus</i> review<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kirk is an author-illustrator best known for the <i>Snoop Troop</i> books, <i>It Came From Beneath the Playground</i>, and <i>Attack of the Ninja Potato Clones</i>, as well as the series <i>Tales of a Sixth-Grade Muppet </i>and <i>Wiley & Grampa's Creature Features</i>.
