For fans of the hilarious Diary of a Wimpy Kid series: Get ready to meet Big Nate! In the first novel in the
New York Times bestselling series, Big Nate is in a class by himself!
Nate knows hes meant for big things. REALLY big things. But things dont always go your way just because youre awesome. Nate barely survives his dads toxic oatmeal before rushing off to school—minus his lunch. He body slams the no-nonsense principal. He accidentally insults his least favorite teacher, the horrifying Mrs. Godfrey (aka Godzilla). And school has barely started!
Trouble always seems to find him, but Nate keeps his cool. He knows hes destined for greatness. A fortune cookie told him so.
Here comes BIG NATE, accidental mischief maker and definitely NOT the teachers pet.

Review
Praise for BIG NATE ON A ROLL: “Nate is often compared to Jeff Kinneys Wimpy Kid and will appeal to the same audience, he bears more resemblance to the tricksters of folklore...the interplay between text and pictures remains fresh, as does the distinction between Peirces cartoons and Nates own cartoons.” The Horn Book
