NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER!

Big Nate: What's a Little Noogie Between Friends? by Lincoln Peirce showcases Nate Wright’s confidence—at least in his own mind. However, when things don’t go as planned, he's left puzzled. How does his soccer team manage to lose to a school with a sixty-game winless streak? What’s he doing at the movies on a Friday night with GINA? And why is one of his classmates (hint: she’s Nate’s dream girl) suddenly moving 3,000 miles away? It’s enough to make a sixth-grade superstar feel... well, not so super.

But you can’t keep a good man down, and Nate has his pals like Teddy, Francis, and Chad to lift his spirits. While their methods might not always be warm and fuzzy, Nate doesn’t mind. After all, what’s a little noogie between friends?
