Berticus: How I Survived School! and Bullies! and Farley Finnigan!

Fifth-grader Berticus exists at the collision point of homework, tests, bullies, first crush and the pressure from The Perfect Student—not a pretty sight, but a funny one. Berticus goes from lunchroom self-appointed maître d', to his secret club, an impromptu sing-a-long following a bathroom mishap, surviving bullies, becoming a martial arts superhero, running for class president, to school band with the girl he’s been crushing on…and all bets are off.

Brian Silbert masterfully explores resilience, friendship, heart, humor and the complexities of being a fifth-grader on his way to middle school.
