Résumé

A humorous and heartwarming middle-grade graphic memoir about fitting in, facing bullies, and finding the right pair of glasses.

El sexto grado no es tan genial como Rex penso que seria. Es el unico chico que no ha dado el estiron, y los abusones se lo recordaran a cada instante. Ya no puede confiar en su mejor amigo, y no puede dejar de pensar en una linda chica de su clase, que es posible este interesada en el. Con tantas cosas sucediendo, a Rex todo le resulta borroso, ¡hasta su vision! Entonces descubre que necesita usar gafas, y su familia solo puede comprarle el par mas feo de la tienda. Cualquier esperanza que Rex tuviera de encajar se desvanece por completo.En esta historia real sobre la adolescencia, Rex tiene la vista puesta en sobrevivir el sexto grado, pero ahora tiene que encontrar la manera de hacerlo con gafas, sin amigos y con una familia que simplemente no lo entiende.Sixth grade isn't as great as Rex thought it would be. He's the only kid who hasn't had a growth spurt, and the bullies won't let him forget it. His closest friend is unreliable, at best. And there's a cute girl in his class who he can't stop thinking about. With so much going on, everything is a blur -- including Rex's vision! So when he discovers that he needs glasses, and his family can only afford the ugliest pair in the store, any hope Rex had of fitting in goes completely out of focus.In this true coming-of-age story, Rex has his sights set on surviving sixth grade, but now he's got to find a way to do it with glasses, no friends, and a family that just doesn't get it!
