Big Nate: Blow the Roof Off! (Volume 22)

Overall, I think the book Big Nate: Blow the Roof Off! is a great book. It is sometimes hard to find the theme in some Big Nate books, but this one was one of the easier ones. It is about Nate going back to another boring year of school, but he meets the girl that he met at the fair in one of his other books. Nate liked her; they rode a ride together, and that is how they came to meet. However, after the ride, the girl, (Trudy) walked away, and Nate lost her. The book is about how Nate tries to warm up to Trudy, realizes that she is a seventh-grader, and finds it hard to hang out with Trudy’s friends. Nate goes to Halloween parties, picnics, and all sorts of other things with Trudy and her seventh-grade friends. Nate wants to start dating, but Trudy is not having it because Nate is a sixth-grader. Eventually, they come to the agreement that it doesn’t matter how old they are, they should keep dating. Overall, I recommend this book to anybody who likes a good, quick read, and anyone who likes a good, hilarious comedy.
