The Downside of Being Up
by Alan Sitomer
Thirteen-year-old Bobby Connor is a normal adolescent boy - at least he
hopes he is - just trying to survive middle school. But it seems he's
being foiled at every turn, and even his own body is conspiring against
him. And when his math teacher is seriously injured from the shock and
fright of witnessing just how out of control Bobby's changing adolescent
body is getting, he starts to worry he's anything but normal.
Faced
with expulsion from school for violating the student handbook code,
Bobby opts for therapy - Correctional Erectional Therapy. It's official:
Bobby Connor is not normal. But in this uproarious and heartfelt novel,
he's going to do his darndest to make it seem that he is . . . or maybe
just try to make it through middle school.
