Jamie Grimm is a middle schooler on a mission: he wants to become the world's greatest standup comedian--even if he doesn't have a lot to laugh about these days. He's new in town and stuck living with his aunt, uncle, and their evil son Stevie, a bully who doesn't let Jamie's wheelchair stop him from messing with Jamie as much as possible. But Jamie doesn't let his situation get him down. When his Uncle Frankie mentions a contest called The Planet's Funniest Kid Comic, Jamie knows he has to enter. But are the judges only rewarding him out of pity because of his wheelchair, like Stevie suggests? Will Jamie ever share the secret of his troubled past instead of hiding behind his comedy act?

Following the bestselling success of the hilarious Middle School, The Worst Years of My Life, James Patterson continues to dish out the funnies in another highly-illustrated, heartfelt middle school story. (Includes more than 175 black-and-white illustrations.)

I love this book. All of my friends love it too! It's about a boy who is in a wheelchair but he is a real comedian! He is sooooo funny!

This book is about a boy named Jamie Grimm, and he wants to be the world's best kid comedian. He enters a contest and he has nothing to say. He tells you why laughing can get you out of trouble at school and everywhere.

I love this book! follow me if you agree! PLEASE!!!

Jamie Grimm wants to be a comedian, but his life is not very funny right now. He's in a wheelchair, moved to a new town and to top it off his big brother is a bully! This book by James Patterson is a fun & interesting read.

it was ok. I liked Middle School Series better. I have read the first 2 already. I can not wait to get the rest of the series.

Jamie is a stand up comedian or so he says. Someone keeps saying the only reason everyone else says he's funny is because he's........IN A WHEELCHAIR.
