HTML:<b>The beloved <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the modern classic <i>Frindle</i> celebrates books and the joy of reading with a new school story to love!</b><br /> &#160;<br /> Sixth grader Alec can’t put a good book down.<br /> &#160;<br /> So when Principal Vance lays down the law—pay attention in class, or <i>else</i>—Alec takes action. He can’t lose all his reading time, so he starts a club. A club he <i>intends</i> to be the only member of. After all, reading isn’t a team sport, and no one would want to join something called the Losers Club, right? But as more and more kids find their way to Alec’s club—including his ex-friend turned bully <i>and</i> the girl Alec is maybe starting to like—Alec notices something. Real life might be messier than his favorite books, but it’s <i>just</i> as interesting.<br /> &#160;<br /> With <i>The Losers Club,</i> Andrew Clements brings us a new school story that’s a love letter to books and to reading and that reminds us that sometimes the best stories are the ones that happen off the page—our own!<br /> <b>Winner of the&#160;Rhode Island Children's Book Award (2019)<br /> Winner of the&#160;International Reading Association and Children's Book Council: Children's Choices List (2018)<br /> Winner of the Garden State Children's Book Award (2020)<br /> 2021&#160;Grand&#160;Canyon&#160;Reader Award Nominee<br /> A&#160;Kansas William White Master List Selection (2018 &amp; 2019)<br /> An&#160;Arkansas Charlie May Simon Children's Book Award Nominee (2019)<br /> A&#160;California Young Reader Medal Nominee (2019)<br /> A&#160;Nebraska Golden Sower Award Nominee (2019)<br /> A&#160;Virginia Young Readers Program Award Nominee (2019)<br /> A Minnesota Maud Heart Lovelace Award Nominee (2019)&#160;<br /> A&#160;Missouri Mark Twain Award Nominee (2019)<br /> An&#160;Oregon Reader’s Choice Award Nominee (2019)</b><br /> &#160;<br /> <b>Praise for <i>The Losers Club</i>!<br /></b>* "Clements’s latest is engaging and funny.
