Planet Tad

I In this highly illustrated tween novel, twelve-year-old Tad - lovable nerd extraordinaire - blogs about his embarrassing experiences and shares his extremely funny thoughts about life, family, and middle-school. Based on a feature of the same name in MAD Magazine.

Twelve-year-old Tad is a middle-schooler with an agenda: Survive seventh grade. Ok, so he also wants to grow a mustache, get girls to notice him, and do a kickflip on his skateboard.

Capturing one full year in the life of Tad, this laugh-out-loud illustrated novel - written in a captivating blog format - will capture the hearts of everyone who reads it. One day at a time.
