內容簡介
「面」對現實吧!七年級開學第一天,Rex就遇上了大危機:額頭正中央那顆圓潤飽滿、呼之欲出的痘痘!而這還只是開始,他接下來還得與那張大花臉、頑固的體味,以及其他惱人的青春期身體變化長期抗戰。沒有多餘的錢負擔痘痘藥膏和止汗劑,Rex該怎麼辦?而學校裡的霸凌仔,顯然也嗅到了Rex的的尷尬與不安…
 
最糟的是,連他的友誼都出現了麻煩,他和朋友之間越來越古怪,Rex覺得自己似乎說什麼都不對,天啊,學校生活糟透了。
 
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 funny, feel-good middle-grade graphic memoir about breaking out, battling puberty, and braving complicated friendships.
 
It's time to face facts!
On the first day of seventh grade, Rex encounters a bump in the road -- a big angry pimple right in the center of his forehead. And this is only the beginning of his problems. What follows is a frustrating battle with stubborn acne, body odor, and other embarrassments of puberty. Still struggling with a home life edging on the poverty line, Rex can't afford to buy the acne medication or deodorant he needs, and bullies are noticing Rex's awkward transformation. On top of it all, things have gotten weird with his friends, making Rex feel like he can't do or say anything right. So far, seventh grade stinks!
