    About this audiobook

    An instant New York Times bestseller, Booki Vivat's Frazzled is the first installment of a funny middle grade series about a girl who is always in a tizzy.

    “Hilarious.” (NPR’s All Things Considered)

    ""Honest, sweet, and laugh-out-loud funny. Fans of Smile and Diary of a Wimpy Kid will appreciate this debut."" (Brightly.com)

    Meet Abbie Wu. Abbie is in crisis—and not just because she’s starting middle school or because she’s stuck in a family that doesn’t quite get her or because everyone seems to have a Thing except her. Abbie Wu is always in crisis.

    From author Booki Vivat, Frazzled dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is and where she belongs. Akin to Smile by Raina Telgemeier, Frazzled is sure to appeal to anyone in the middle of figuring out how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up.

      This book is for those looking for a more girl centric Wimpy Kid. This book fits right in. We join our lead as a middle child in Middle School and she hates it!. Everything about it. She very much makes me think of Jan Brady. She feels she doesn’t get enough attention as the middle child. She is always worried and anxious about not being as good as her brother or as loved as her sister. I get the problems, and see many kids who will not only enjoy this read but find themselves in it. As for myself, as an older sister, I just want to tell her to stop whining and enjoy your life. #MGChallege - Debut

      Cute and funny with pretty delightful illustrations. A good fit for Dork Diary fans or Wimpy Kid fans.

      Abbie Wu, middle child, is not looking forward to middle school. She doesn't know what her Thing is, where she'll shine. This gets her down. Abbie is dramatic. But she discovers a thing when she devises an underground lunch trading system to try to deal with injustice in the cafeteria. The book is written with big print and plentiful drawings. It will be a great fit for some struggling or reluctant readers.
    • 3/5
      Fun illustrated novel about a girl finding her way on a day-to-day basis.
