The Losers Club

The Losers Club

"A winning school story that celebrates new experiences and the joy of books." - Seira Wilson, Amazon Editor

The beloved New York Times bestselling author of the modern classic Frindle celebrates books and the joy of reading with a new school story to love!
Â
Sixth grader Alec canâ€™t put a good book down.
Â
So when Principal Vance lays down the lawâ€”pay attention in class, or elseâ€”Alec takes action. He canâ€™t lose all his reading time, so he starts a club. A club he intends to be the only member of. After all, reading isnâ€™t a team sport, and no one would want to join something called the Losers Club, right? But as more and more kids find their way to Alecâ€™s clubâ€”including his ex-friend turned bully and the girl Alec is maybe starting to likeâ€”Alec notices something. Real life might be messier than his favorite books, but itâ€™s just as interesting.
Â
With The Losers Club, Andrew Clements brings us a new school story thatâ€™s a love letter to books and to reading and that reminds us that sometimes the best stories are the ones that happen off the pageâ€”our own!

Praise for The Losers Club!
* "Clementsâ€™s latest is engaging and funny. A laugh-out-loud first purchase for all middle grade collections, and a solid read-aloud choice for classrooms."â€”School Library Journal, Starred Review

"Clements is out to celebrate reading in all its obsessiveness, and...tosses in shout-outs to a passel of other writers. [The Losers Club] gives fried bookworms everywhere the satisfaction of knowing that friends may desert them (if only temporarily) but books never will.Â "â€”The New York Times
