Highly recommended!

Review by Mila

I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes to get a good laugh. Yehudi tries to do sports, but keeps getting injured. Chunky is his imaginary friend and fan. When Yehudi tries to fit in with new friends, he hurts Chunky's feelings. I learned that we should do the things we are good at that make us feel good, and not pretend to be someone we are not. That's how we keep our fans rooting for us.

Review by marshmallowqueen

this book is VERY funny and would be a good read for someone feeling self-conscious about their weight. the panels don't fit together that well tho so it's hard to understand the story sometimes, but it still was decent. :)

Review by Munah23

This book was good . It's about a boy Yehudi. He needs to lose weight. Then he meets an imaginary friend. His parents want him to try sports. It was a little too short of a book for me but otherwise it was good. :)
