Overview
Dork Diaries: How to be a Dork WBD is a brand-new World Book Day paperback that drops readers straight back into Nikki Maxwell's hilarious, diary-style world. Written especially for World Book Day 2015, this bite-sized entry in the phenomenally popular Dork Diaries series is packed with Nikki's trademark doodles, embarrassing moments, and laugh-out-loud observations on surviving middle school. It's a brilliant, low-commitment way to introduce a new reader to the series, or a fun top-up for existing fans who can't get enough of Nikki's world.

About the Book
Nikki Maxwell is back with a special World Book Day mission: teaching readers everything she knows about being a proud, unapologetic dork. Told through Nikki's distinctive diary format, complete with her own scribbled illustrations and comic asides, this short special edition captures all the charm that has made the Dork Diaries series a global sensation. Fans will recognise Nikki's chaotic school life, her ongoing rivalry with mean-girl MacKenzie, her loyal best friends Chloe and Zoey, and her hopeless crush on Brandon, all rendered with the same warmth and wit that runs through the full-length titles. Because this WBD edition is shorter and more affordable than a standard Dork Diaries book, it's an ideal entry point for reluctant or younger readers who want a taste of the series before committing to a longer story, while remaining just as funny, relatable, and beautifully illustrated as its full-length siblings. The diary format keeps chapters short and punchy, making it perfect for reading in one sitting or dipping into a few pages at a time. Themes of friendship, self-acceptance, and finding the funny side of an awkward situation run throughout, wrapped up in Nikki's instantly recognisable voice.

• Short, diary-style chapters perfect for reluctant or younger readers
• Packed with Nikki's original doodles and comic illustrations
• Ideal introduction to the Dork Diaries series before trying the full-length titles
• Celebrates friendship, humour, and embracing your quirks
