Praise for The Losers Club!
Clementss latest is engaging and funny. A laugh-out-loud first purchase for all middle grade collections, and a solid read-aloud choice for classrooms.School Library Journal, Starred Review

Clements is out to celebrate reading in all its obsessiveness, and...tosses in shout-outs to a passel of other writers. The Losers Club gives fried bookworms everywhere the satisfaction of knowing that friends may desert them (if only temporarily) but books never will. The New York Times

We have never read an Andrew Clements book that we havent loved. The Washington Post
