Children’s Choice Book Award ‘Author of the Year’ winner (2010) James Patterson, one of the best-known and biggest-selling writers of all time is releasing MIDDLE SCHOOL: GET ME OUT OF HERE!, a heart-warming and uproariously funny novel with over 100 illustrations in hardback on 26 April 2012.

James Patterson’s follow-up to bestseller Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life which spent more than 12 weeks in the Sunday Times top ten bestseller list and peaked at number two is another riotous and heart-warming story about living large.

After sixth grade, the very worst year of his life, Rafe Khatchadorian thinks he has it made in seventh grade. He’s been accepted to art school in the big city and imagines a math-and-history-free fun zone. Wrong! It’s more competitive than Rafe ever expected and to score big in class he needs to find a way to turn his boring life into the inspiration for a work of art. His method? Operation: Get a Life! Anything he’s never done before, he’s going to do it, from learning to play poker to going to a modern art museum. When his newest mission uncovers secrets about the family Rafe’s never known, he has to decide if he’s ready to have his world turned upside down.

From his Pageturner Awards (which rewarded groups and individuals for creative and effective ways of spreading the joy of reading) to his website ReadKiddoRead.com (which helps adults find books that kids are sure to love), James Patterson is a lifelong champion of books and reading.

Recommended Age: 9-11years
