Bionic Boy

Middle Grade · Ages 8–12 · Contemporary Fiction

Andrew Stephens is having a completely normal year.

Normal, that is, if your normal includes your dad moving out, your mom taking a job at your school, and your former best friend calling you "dia-butt-face" in gym class. So yeah, completely normal.

Now Andrew has to face fifth grade and type 1 diabetes alone. But when he starts hanging out with Micah and Anyana, he discovers that his diabetes-fueled math skills are cool. Competing in the Math Decathlon suddenly feels possible.

Learning to love his new normal and stand up for himself along the way?

That might just be his superpower.

Comp titles: Jawbreaker (Wyman, 2023) · The Tenth Mistake of Hank Hooperman (Choldenko, 2024)
