(Harcourt Childrens Books, May 22, 2008)
Arty may be shorter than your average teen, but that doesn't mean his problems are small. If anything, they're huge. Whether he is dodging the fists of his hulking twin older brother, dealing with the other misfits in his school, helping track down the stolen school mascot, or falling in love for the first time, Arty lives his life looking up--and giving readers an unusual perspective on becoming a man. A hilarious, surprisingly moving novel from a huge talent, Funny Little Monkey heralds the arrival of a bold new comedic voice.
