How to survive middle school

How to survive middle school (without getting your head flushed) and deal with an ex-best-friend, um, girls, and a heartbreaking hamster by Donna Gephart

David Greenberg dreams of becoming a TV superstar along the lines of Jon Stewart. But in real life, he's just another kid terrified of starting his first year at Harmon Junior High. Things aren't looking any better when David gets duped by his best friend into breaking the dress code on the first day of school. But while he and his buddy are fighting, David is lucky enough to make a new friend, Sophie.

Luckily for David, Sophie loves TV too, and shares his love of putting together skits to goof on middle school life. When she posts one of their skits to Youtube, they become an overnight sensation. But how will David cope with being an internet star and a real life schmoe? Will this lead to his actually becoming popular in real life? And more importantly - might it convince Sophie to kiss him?

Here's the book trailer.
