Overview
Meet Hank Zipzer, the boy who tries his hardest but always lands in trouble at school. This complete 10-book paperback collection follows Hank through report cards gone wrong, science projects gone rogue and school trips gone wild. Written by Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver, inspired by Winkler's own dyslexia, the series is warm, funny and reassuring for children who find school a struggle. A brilliant gift for readers aged 7-9.
About the Books
Hank Zipzer is smart, funny and resourceful, but school has a habit of getting the better of him. Across these ten stories, Hank battles a disastrous report card that ends up in his mum's meat grinder in I Got a "D" in Salami, wrestles with a science project gone wrong in Day of the Iguana, and faces the school Olympiad in The Zippity Zinger. From a chaotic field trip aboard a tall-masted ship to a spicy Multi-Cultural Day disaster in Holy Enchilada!, a looming summer school sentence, and a Halloween prank that backfires with his scaredy-cat dog Cheerio, Hank's adventures are packed with slapstick humour and heart. Each book stands alone but together builds a relatable picture of a boy who struggles with reading and writing yet never gives up. The stories draw on Winkler's real childhood experience of undiagnosed dyslexia, handled with warmth and plenty of laughs. Written in short, punchy chapters, they build reading confidence in reluctant readers, while Hank's family, friends and loyal dog add colour throughout.
