Slacker by Gordon KormanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Cameron Boxer is the definition of a slacker. His world revolves around online gaming, to the extent that his house almost burnt down because he only paid attention to his game. His parents have had enough and insist that he gets involved in something constructive. He forms a club that is sure that no one will join, "Positive Action Group", but it's discovered and quickly becomes the most popular and active club at school. This is NOT what slacker president Cameron Boxer intended or expected.
Gordon Korman has written a middle grade novel that most every middle grader will be able to relate to. I like his positive characterizations of middle school students - especially Cameron Boxer. This is one of my favorite Korman books.
