After his mother's death, Davis Delaware's new rock band, the Amazing Dweebs, gets him through his ninth-grade year. Davis's lively first-person narrative is driven by dialogue, cartoons and doodles, and song lyrics. Hannan delivers the requisite giggles while capturing the melodrama and frenzy of high school life, all through the perspective of a likable protagonist.
