A humorous and heartwarming middle-grade graphic memoir about fitting
in, facing bullies, and finding the right pair of glasses.
Sixth grade isn't as great as Rex thought it would be. He's the only kid
who hasn't had a growth spurt, and the bullies won't let him forget it.
His closest friend is unreliable, at best. And there's a cute girl in
his class who he can't stop thinking about. With so much going on,
everything is a blur -- including Rex's vision! So when he discovers
that he needs glasses, and his family can only afford the ugliest pair
in the store, any hope Rex had of fitting in goes completely out of
focus.
In this true coming-of-age story, Rex has his sights set on surviving
sixth grade, but now he's got to find a way to do it with glasses, no
friends, and a family that just doesn't get it!
