A 2023 Global Read Aloud Selection! Acclaimed author Jarrett Lerner's personal and powerful story about a young boy’s struggles with body image and his ultimate self-acceptance.
A young boy struggles with body image in this poignant and perceptive (Publishers Weekly, starred review) middle grade journey to self-acceptance told through prose, verse, and illustration.
Will is the only round kid in a school full of thin ones. So he hides in baggy jeans and oversized hoodies, in the back row during class, and anywhere but the cafeteria during lunch. But shame isnt the only feeling that dominates Wills life. Hes also got a crush on a girl named Jules who he knows he doesnt have a chance with, because of his sizebut he cant help wondering what if?
Wills best shot at attracting Juless attention is by slaying the Will Monster inside him by changing his eating habits and getting more exercise. But the results are either frustratingly slow or infuriatingly unsuccessful, and Wills shame begins to morph into self-loathing.
As he resorts to increasingly drastic measures to transform his appearance, Will meets skateboarder Markus, who helps him see his body and all it contains as an ever-evolving work in progress.
