About this book
In this collection, sixteen talented cartoonists have come together to share some of their deepest, darkest stories about some of the deepest, darkest years of their lives: the middle school years. The years when you're too old to play with toy cars but you're too young to drive a real one; the years when your best friend suddenly decides you're not cool enough for her, or vice versa; the years when you think no one -- no one -- has ever felt this way before. Well, Stuck in the Middle is here to tell you that someone has. The real and fictional characters in this book survived their middle school years, and so will you. Let's face it: thirteen is an unpleasant age. But that doesn' mean you can't laugh about it, whether you're still dealing the the issues in this book or are far beyond them. Misery loves company, so start reading.
