I was delighted to receive several advanced copies of books at the NCTE Conference in November. This student was the first to read A Kid like Me by Norm Feuti. Pre-order now for February 2026!
#iLoveMG is my continuing series where I share middle grade books recommended by my fifth graders. (Please note that my fifth graders read a wide variety of books across a wide variety of genres, levels, and topics. Do not think that these books are "only" for fifth graders.) For younger readers, #3rdfor3rd for recommendations from when I taught third grade.
My book is a graphic novel called A Kid like Me made by Norm Feuti. The main character Ethan is poor so he can’t afford a very old phone, so his mom gets him a retro phone. He is mad that he didn’t get a new phone so he hid it.
A Kid Like Me
Recommended by AnonymousWhat will he do, and what will happen if anyone figures out he has a retro phone?
I really like this book, and it is a graphic novel so I read it quicker. It’s a good book for people who like middle school graphic novels like the New Kid series by Jerry Craft.
