From critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling author-illustrator Jerry Craft comes a new special box set that includes all three books in his award-winning collection of graphic novels.
In New Kid, winner of the Newbery Medal, the Coretta Scott King Author Award, and the Kirkus Prize, you'll meet twelve-year-old Jordan Banks as he starts seventh grade at the prestigious Riverdale Academy Day School--where diversity is low and expectations are high.
In Class Act, Jordan's friends Drew and Liam have their own struggles as they enter their eighth grade year. Can two kids who are really so different still be friends?
And the saga soars to new heights in School Trip, where Jordan, Drew, Liam, and the rest of their friends all feel like the "new kid" as they spend an entire week in Paris.
Middle school is hard enough without being the new kid...
