Jake Murphy The Karate Choke:
Anxiety stinks, especially when you’re the smartest kid in the school.
They call Jake Murphy 'The Brain' at Central Elementary School, but he can't outsmart the anxiety that makes him choke under pressure.
Jake enjoyed school and loved learning, but during a presentation in front of his classmates, his anxiety took over and he completely choked. After getting relentlessly bullied by mean classmates, Jake thought his life couldn’t get any worse. He was wrong…
In an effort to help him ‘build character,’ Jake’s parents signed him up for karate lessons. Now, Jake must learn how to deal with his anxiety and how to survive karate class.
If your child enjoyed Holes, Way of the Warrior Kid, and Max Crumbly, then don’t miss Jake Murphy The Karate Choke by Paul Breau.
