"Howe has created a character that lives and breathes with all of the inconsistencies, fears and longings of your normal average seventh-grade homosexual." Publisher's noteWhen he is given an assignment to write his autobiography on alphabetized cards during the span of a school year, Joe Bunch takes it on with little enthusiasm until his writing begins to help him understand himself, his feelings for his boyfriend Colin Briggs, and his place in the world as the misfit he thinks himself to be. AnnotationStructured around the "alphabiography" of 13-year-old Joe Bunch, an effeminately gay teen who is very comfortable with who he is, this humorous, insightful young-adult novel covers a lot of territory as it tackles a variety of teen issues. Part of a funky group of friends who are definitely oddballs, Joe chronicles his life for an English assignment. The results--about love, friendship, and not fitting in--are poignant, sweet, and infinitely thought-provoking. This is a companion title to THE MISFITS. James Howe is also the author of the classic middle-grade horror spoof, BUNNICULA. A Kirkus Reviews Best Children's Book of 2005.
