Joey Pigza doesn’t mean to be in trouble all the time –it just happens. Joey feels “wired” most of the day, and feeling that way causes him to do things like sharpening his own finger in the pencil sharpener, swallowing his house key, and eating a whole pie. Joey Pizga has what the doctors call Attention Deficit Disorder. Joey just knows that most times his “meds” don’t work and he feels out of control. Can anyone help Joey so he doesn’t have to stay in a special school?
This is a funny book – but it’s also a book that helps us know what it feels like to be different than the rest of the kids.
