內容簡介
升上六年級並不像Rex想像中的美好,在大家迅速抽高的時候,只有他的身高原地踏步,而班上的惡霸們又怎麼會放過這一點呢?班上那個可愛的女生不知道是不是也喜歡他,他的朋友似乎也靠不住,面對一團混亂、令人茫然的新生活,他…等等,茫然的還有他的視力!?
 
這下他需要一副眼鏡了,但家中的經濟狀況只負擔得起店裡最醜的那一副,因此和Rex的視力同樣迅速下滑的,還有他亟欲融入班級生活,和大家打成一片的希望…
 
身兼獲獎無數的青少年小說作者、漫畫家,同時也是編輯的Rex Ogle,道出了最樸實無華,也最為人共鳴的校園成長故事。想和大家打成一片卻始終格格不入的沮喪、青春期身體變化帶來侷促與尷尬、和好友的爭執與外表帶來的焦慮…這位超英漫畫家又一次卸下披風,回歸平凡,與暢銷插畫家Dave Valeza攜手描繪出你我那些酸甜苦辣的成長時刻。
 
A humorous and heartwarming middle-grade graphic memoir about fitting in, facing bullies, and finding the right pair of glasses.
 
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 may or may not like him back. 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!
