Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life

Beyond massive. Cheeky Rafe is on top of the world. (Even if he’s still bottom of the class.) Not many sixth-graders pose a challenge to the King of Wimps. But Rafe is exceptional. His books break all the rules of what a middle-school kid can do. And we mean that. Rafe’s just been sent to Prison; that is, Hills Village School. But he’s not going quietly. He’s tearing up the evil Code of Conduct by breaking every rule. Running in the hall: 10,000 points. Pulling the fire alarm: 50,000 points. How long can he keep it up? The good news is, this book is first in a big series. So the fun won’t end any time soon.

  • First in this blockbusting, hugely popular series
  • Hilarious look at the ups and downs of school life
  • Brilliant doodles full of dramatic visual impact
  • James Patterson has sold over 300 million books
