Resumen del Editor

It's not like I meant for him to get hurt....

Julian Twerski isn't a bully. He's just made a big mistake. So when he returns to school after a weeklong suspension, his English teacher offers him a deal: If he keeps a journal and writes about the terrible incident that got him and his friends suspended, he can get out of writing a report on Shakespeare. Julian jumps at the chance. And so begins his account of life in sixth grade - blowing up homemade fireworks, writing a love letter for his best friend (with disastrous results), and worrying whether he's still the fastest kid in school. Lurking in the background, though, is the one story he can't bring himself to tell, the one story his teacher most wants to hear.

Inspired by Mark Goldblatt's own childhood growing up in 1960s Queens, Twerp shines with humor and heart. This remarkably powerful story will have readers laughing and crying right along with these flawed but unforgettable characters.

Great message

The book had so many great lessons and it shows that even someone who has made a lot of bad decisions can still make up for it in the end. This book truly deserves 5 stars

this is one of my favorite books ever!I love this.

The most memorable moment was
after they had egged Danley.
I could actually feel the sadness from Julian.

Will save for the grand children!

Very enjoyable! Definitely going to read the sequel!
I like how the story unfolded and the main character realized things about himself and others as it moved along. Lessons learned by all!
