The Misadventures Of Max Crumbly: Locker Hero by Rachel Renee Russell

Max is a new student starting middle school after years of home schooling and is afraid of Doug, or Thug as he nicknames him as Doug is a bully and treats Max terribly. Max gets embarrassed in front of his crush Erin by falling over thanks to Doug as he recalls to us in his book as he's trapped in his locker and Erin rescues him as she walks by only he later ends up trapped once again by Doug just in time for the weekend!

My favourite scene from the book was the dancing janitor while poor Max was trapped inside his locker! Max then proceeds to break out of his locker and stumbles on a burglary taking place in the school!

From pizza obsessed burglars, stealing girls clothes and bum dialling his crush during the burglarly, Max is a force to be reconed with.

Dork Diaries character Brandon appears in the book as he is Max's only friend and they volunteer together at the pet shelter.

Alike Nikki in Dork Diaries, Brandon has a victory dance for good news like Nikki's Snoopy happy dance.

I loved the ironic twist to the book title being Locker Hero as at first hes a zero trapped in his locker then a superhero saving the school hopefully from burglary.

I can't wait for the next book as it ends on a nail biting cliffhanger!
