A brand-new series from #1 NYT bestselling Dork Diaries author Rachel Renee Russell! Introducing Max Crumbly, the new Dork on the block...
Max is about to face the scariest place heās ever been ā South Ridge Middle School! He has been home-schooled by his grandmother until now, and heās begged his parents to finally let him start attending a real school. Heās starting to question that choice, though, with the Doug aka Thug Thurston Problem. As in, Thug keeps stuffing Max in his locker.
If only Max could be like the hero in all the comics he likes to read ā or the ones he draws ā and magically escape the locker and defeat Thug. Unfortunately, Maxās uncanny, almost superhuman ability to smell pizza from a block away wonāt exactly save any lives or foil bad guys. But that doesnāt mean Max wonāt do his best to be the hero his school needs!
