Lowkey Wise: Fables for the Modern Middle Schooler

Life comes at you fast—so do the lessons. Some you learn the easy way. Others? Not so much.

Lowkey Wise takes classic fables, flips them on their heads, and remixes them for the digital age—because let’s be honest, Aesop never had to deal with Snap streaks, clout chasers, or the existential crisis of a Wi-Fi outage.

Ever met The Otter Who Skipped Practice and thought talent alone would carry them? What about The Fox Who Bought Followers only to realize bots don’t throw birthday parties? And let’s not forget The Hedgehog with No Boundaries (aka the friend who texts “U up?” 50 times a night).

These aren’t just stories; they’re survival guides wrapped in LOLs, because let’s face it—middle school is one big fable in the making. Whether you’re the main character, the chaotic sidekick, or just trying to make it through the group project without losing your mind, these modern fables serve up wisdom with a side of savage humor.

Moral of the story? You’re gonna make mistakes. You’re gonna learn from them. And if you don’t, well… you’ll probably end up in the next chapter.

Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Percy Jackson, and anyone who’s ever said, “Wait… was that a life lesson?”

Because the truth? Still slaps.
