I Funny: A Middle School Story (I Funny #1)
Following the bestselling success of the hilarious Middle School, The Worst Years of My Life, James Patterson continues to dish out the funnies in another highly-illustrated, heartfelt middle school story. (Includes more than 175 black-and-white illustrations.)
I Funny is a book about a boy named Jamie Grim. Jamie lost his parents and his sister and mobility of his legs in a car crash. Jamie has a dream to to be the kids funnies kid comic. But Jamie does not want to do it because of his stage fright that he has had for a long time. But Jamie always has his friends Ganor Percie and Gilda to give the confidants to do anything.
The humour in this book is awful. It's lame and cringy and none of the "jokes" were remotely funny. The writing was horrid as well (what did I expect from James Patterson? Something worth reading? No way) And the illustrations were downright disgusting. I officially rename this book i is not funny: a story of someone who needs to learn grammar and quit making leona cringe
I think the book I Funny by James Patterson was a funny book but something about it was not as funny as i was expecting. I love all of James Pattersons books ,but this one was not one of his best nor one i liked. The book was written like all of his books but the one did not have something that the others had, in this book the characters were not that interesting,but for example in the middle school series Rafe (one of the characters) James added that he was kind of a bad student and it was ore
Laughter truly is the best medicine. As we follow Jamie's journey to become Long Island's best kid comedian, we can truly see how laughter can heal. What is on the outside a very funny book also has some poignant and deeply touching moments. Recommended for 4th grade and up.ARC provided by publisher.
Buddy reading with my 9 year old daughter. As she gets older and starts venturing closer to the YA section of the library, I find myself reading more middle grade books to see what she's reading, keep up with her interests and make sure everything stays age appropriate. At my son's soccer practice earlier, my daughter brought this to read but then set it down to play frisbee. But as it was still 92° at 6 p.m., I declined to play. I also didn't bring a book for myself as I usually do because I'm
I just finished "I FUNNY" by: James Patterson and Chris Grabenstein. This is probably the best book I have ever read. I think it is a fabulous book because Jamie Grimm is really funny. His goal was to become the PLANET'S FUNNIEST KID COMIC, but I am not going to tell you what happens at the end. When he was little he got in a car wreck and his mom, dad, and little sister, Jenny, died, but he lived. The sad thing is he almost didn't and now he's in a wheel chair. I can sort of relate to Jamie
