Meet Abbie Wu! She’s about to start middle school and she’s totally in crisis.

Abbie Wu is in crisis—and not just because she’s stuck in a family that doesn’t quite get her or because the lunch ladies at school are totally corrupt or because everyone seems to have a “Thing” except her. Abbie Wu is in crisis always.

Heavily illustrated and embarrassingly honest, Frazzled dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is, where she belongs, and how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up. With Abbie’s flair for the dramatic and natural tendency to freak out, middle school has never seemed so nerve-racking!

Packed with hilarious black-and-white illustrations and doodles throughout, Frazzled takes readers through Abbie Wu’s hysterical middle school adventures.


It doesn't matter if you were in middle school over a million years ago (you'll get why I said that when you read the book), or only a few years ago, there's something about Abbie Wu that you'll love. She'll make you laugh about the things you thought were earth shattering when you were in MS, and if you're just entering MS, than this book is most definitely for you! Abbie will make you feel like you're not alone. Trust me, her story is packed with humor, truth, and maybe a little advice. 

Abbie Wu isn't the only thing I loved about this book. I not only loved the way Vivat wrote her debut book, I absolutely love Vivat's sketches. 


This book is fabulous! I wish I had, had Abbie Wu's story when I was entering middle school. I can't wait for my middle schooler to read it.

I would be most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves. ~ Anna Quindlen

Good children's literature appeals not only to
the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.
