Description

Twelve-year-old Simon Rosen has qualified for the Canadian Video Game Championships in Vancouver. If he can get straight A’s in school, his parents have agreed to take him. The stakes are especially high. His parents are always fighting, and if he can just get them to Vancouver—the place where they fell in love—maybe he can save his family from the brink of divorce.

Review

'the breezy, sometimes slapstick humor will appeal to reluctant readers.' School Library Journal

A typical tween

Twelve-year-old Simon Rosen has a plan: make videos to ace his class project, earn a trip to Vancouver, participate in the Video Game Championships, get his parents to fall back in love.

His parent's marriage is falling apart

But when he tries to record himself, he soon learns that plans can go embarrassingly awry.

He has one chance to keep his family together

A hilarious, relevant fast-paced middle grade novel about friendship, bullying and the power and perils of social media.
