"With lots of warmth, humor, and sly wit, Canadian author Matson
introduces readers to one of the funniest characters to ever cross
the pages of middle-grade literature. With his story told through a
series of e-mails, journal entries, and memos, Arthur Bean is a
unique new voice not soon to be forgotten." - Shelf Awareness
"[A] humorous coming-of-age novel." - Publishers Weekly
"As readers follow Arthur through the year, they will see him
change in ways that aren't always likable but are usually relatable
and that lead to real growth. " - School Library Journal
"Through essays, e-mails, letters, journal entries, drawings,
teachers' notes, and assignment descriptions, Matson takes readers
through Arthur's seventh-grade year. They see him develop, change,
and mature, and they will grow along with him. Fans of Tommy
Greenwald's Charlie Joe Jackson series will be drawn to Arthur" -
