(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Jeff Ebbeler. Middle schooler Jimmy sets out to start his own kid-run publishing company; no matter what adult naysayers throw in his way, he's determined to "make books that make kids want to read more books." Short chapters full of (imaginary) robots and alien invasions, absurd adults, and exuberantly chaotic drawings keep this occasionally didactic fictional origin story of JIMMY (Patterson) Books moving at a swift pace.
