Big Nate delights middle grade readers with stories of mischief and misadventure in these new full-color comic strips featuring sixth grader Nate Wright and friends at P.S. 38.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES!

Middle school can be a hot mess—especially for Nate Wright. Whether he's bluffing his way through an oral report about... umm... some random war, peer-reviewing a classmate's story about cats, or writing a book report on a literary gem called The Cheerleader Chronicles, Nate's usually up to his eyeballs in stress.

But our hero always finds ways to cope. Like bringing Spitsy to school as an emotional support dog. Or creating a graphic novel to (sort of) complete his math homework. Nate even authors a no-nonsense advice column with a title that says it all: Ask The Genius.

Filled with Lincoln Peirce’s signature comic-strip humor, Big Nate: Remain Calm delivers fast-paced jokes, expressive artwork, and relatable school situations that keep kids turning pages. Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Dog Man, this illustrated collection is especially appealing to reluctant readers who love visual storytelling, big laughs, and nonstop antics.
