The story mixes humor, heart, and the everyday challenges of navigating adolescence.
Quick Summary
If you're looking for a quick, funny read that actually gets what middle school feels like, Sunny's latest adventure is perfect. Sunny's just started secondary school, and she's thrown into a whirlwind of new classes, weird hallways, and the ever-present feeling that everyone else knows the secret code. She ends up in a dice-rolling game that becomes a metaphor for taking chances, and the story follows her as she fumbles through friendships, a few embarrassing moments, and a whole lot of jokes that will have readers giggling in no time. The graphic-novel format makes it easy to fly through the pages, and the art is bright and expressive, which is a big draw for kids who might not be huge readers. It's especially good for kids who love humor about school life, kids who are nervous about moving up a grade, or anyone who likes the style of the Baby-Sitters Club graphic novels. Parents will appreciate that it's light-hearted, with a few scary-funny moments, but nothing too heavy just a relatable story about trying to fit in while rolling the dice on a brand-new school year.
