<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> Nervous about middle school because her family does not get her and her friends know exactly what they want to do, Abbie Wu searches for her own passion before discovering a knack for leadership when injustices in the cafeteria come to light. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><strong>An instant <em>New York Times</em> bestseller, Booki Vivat's <em>Frazzled</em> is the first installment of a funny middle grade graphic novel series about a girl who is always in a tizzy.</strong></p><p>"<em>Hilarious.</em>" (NPR's All Things Considered)</p><p><em>Honest, sweet, and laugh-out-loud funny. Fans of Smile and Diary of a Wimpy Kid will appreciate this debut.</em> (Brightly.com)</p><p>Meet Abbie Wu. Abbie is in crisis--and not just because she's starting middle school or because she's stuck in a family that doesn't quite get her or because everyone seems to have a Thing except her. Abbie Wu is always in crisis.</p><p>From author and professional doodler Booki Vivat, <em>Frazzled</em> dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is and where she belongs. Akin to <em>Smile</em> by Raina Telgemeier, <em>Frazzled</em> is heavily illustrated, embarrassingly honest, and sure to appeal to anyone in the middle of figuring out how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br> <p>If you ask me, the worst part about middle school is the fact that it is MIDDLE school. Nothing good happens in the Middles, and since middle school is the middle of all Middles, </p><p><strong>I am guaranteed, without a doubt, 100% doomed.</strong></p><p>Meet Abbie Wu. She's about to start middle school and she's totally freaking out--and not just because she's stuck in a family that doesn't quite get her or because the lunch ladies at school are totally corrupt or because everyone seems to have a "Thing" except her. Abbie Wu is always in crisis.</p> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> ★ "Debut author Vivat writes and illustrates a funny, neurotic, and delightful girl with a heart as big as her worries. The extensively illustrated novel packs a punch with fresh, lively pencil-and-ink drawings and lettering that set each mood perfectly."--<em>Kirkus Reviews </em><strong>(starred review)</strong> </br></br>"Vivat's funny, quick-moving debut skips along even faster thanks to the endearing doodles that appear throughout, punctuating Abbie's travails with chibi-esque emotional outbursts featuring flailing limbs, speed lines, and exaggerated typography."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em> </br></br>"Honest, sweet, and laugh-out-loud funny."--Brightly </br></br>"This one is a great gift for an elementary school grad." (cited as 1 of "10 Next Reads for Kids Who Love Raina Telgemeier")</strong>--Brightly </br></br>"Abbie's wisecracks and observations, coupled with her remarkable gift for hyperbole, will keep readers laughing, while her challenges will have them relating. It's an amusing romp perfect for those with their own concerns about the middles."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books </br></br>"Abbie's phobias and worries are charmingly depicted in this heavily illustrated hybrid novel....share this title with fans of Jeff Kinney's "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" series and anyone who will appreciate rooting for a witty underdog."--School Library Journal </br></br>"Debut author Vivat's generously interspersed, animated cartoon illustrations incorporate abundant witty touches and commentary and often extend the main text..."--Booklist Online </br></br>"Newcomer Vivat's novel, with its hyperbolic text and superabundant adrenaline-filled cartoon drawings...has plenty of appeal, but it's the clever plot that gives the story depth."--The Horn Book
