By the time you left your elementary school, you knew the ropes. You were the oldest, the smartest, the top dog. But the minute you enter middle school, everything changes. You have more teachers and harder classes. Your friendships change. And suddenly the girls you thought you knew are acting like totally different people! How do you know what's expected of you now? And how do you keep from embarrassing yourself as you figure it all out?
With insight from three guys who have been there, The Manual to Middle School is your "Do This, Not That" guide to nearly everything middle school can throw your way, including:
- lockers
- bullies
- test taking
- cell phone use
- homework
- gossip
- leadership
- respect
- sports
- and more
With real-life hacks, humorous illustrations, and tons of true survival stories, Jonathan Catherman and his sons, Reed and Cole, will get you through middle school like a pro.
