The Barftastic Life of Louie Burger

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Jason Week. In this mildly funny story about a klutzy fifth-grade boy, Louie wants to be a stand-up comedian, but he has stage fright. Also, his best friend comes back from camp with a new friend (who's a girl!); his father is having a mid-life crisis; and his sisters are driving him crazy. Some gross-out humor and cartoon illustrations will draw in the intended audience.
