Description

Fans of James Patterson's Middle School series will root for David as he goes from feeling as insignificant as a hamster to becoming an Internet superstar. Perfect for back to school--no matter what that looks like! 
 
Eleven-year-old David Greenberg dreams of becoming a YouTube sensation and spends all of his time making hilarious Top 6½ Lists and Talk Time videos. But before he can get famous, he has to figure out a way to deal with:
 
6. Middle school (much scarier than it sounds!)
5. His best friend gone girl-crazy
4. A runaway mom who has no phone!
3. The threat of a swirlie on his birthday
2. A terrifying cousin
1. His # 1 fan, Bubbe (his Jewish grandmother)
1/2. Did we mention Hammy, the hamster who’s determined to break David’s heart?
 
But when David’s new best friend, Sophie, starts sending out the links to everyone she knows and her friends tell their friends, thousands of people start viewing his videos.

    I loved the book but I think it needs a sequel with Tommy Murphy getting revenge and David's mom. Other than that great book!
  • Loved this book!

    (I am in 5th grade) I was looking for something to read at school one day and I saw a lot of people reading this so when I got home I went on my phone and downloaded this book! When I was done I was AMAZED about how much I cried! It was so sad on one part and I felt was so bad for David! And believe it or not there is a video on you tube based on Hammy! Over all I LOVED this book!!

    This is one of the best book I have ever read. I love this book. I am giving it a total five star rating. If you have not read it read it. It's great. So worth what I paid for. I am 10 so it was a good book for me and easy to under stand. I say this book is good for kids, pre-teens, and teens. Probably good for ages 7-30 years old. I have to say that book is great. And I have read over 300,000 books in my life, and I have to say this is my favorite. From my review please read the book if you are with in age level. You can be 200 years old this will still be a GREAT book for you. Thank you so much for reading my comments, but don't walk away I will tell you about the book to see if you like this kind of book. This book is realistic fiction. This book starts out with a boy named David and his best friend Elliott. They are in fith grade together. Then Elliott and David get it a big fight...... I am sorry read the book to find out......! Thank you soooooooo much for reading this comment bye!

    I love reading this book cuz it really shows the truth in things. I always have to refrain from giggling when Sophie kisses David and from crying when Hammy dies.
  • Awesome book!
