"Recommended for reluctant readers and fans of graphic novels and
hybrid books."-- "School Library Journal"
"Using second-person narration addressed at the New Kid, Swaab
tells the tale between the lines of Max's glib patter and frantic
reactions to being outmaneuvered; cartoon line drawings on nearly
every page convey side comments and punch lines...Readers who
identify with the never-seen New Kid can pat themselves on the back
as "you" repeatedly come through in the clutch. Even readers with
no political aspirations can pick up several useful cons."--
"Kirkus"
