If there\u2019s one year in my life I\u2019d rather not relive, it would have to be seventh grade. I think my mom would agree. Oh, the drama. <\/em>Middle school certainly isn’t smooth sailing, but thankfully we\u2019ve got incredible books to help tweens build their confidence and survive those awkward years. One of our favorites: The Nat Enough<\/a><\/em> series<\/a> from New York Times<\/em> bestselling author Maria Scrivan! We were thrilled to help Scholastic promote the second novel in the series, Forget Me Nat<\/a><\/em>, to parents of middle schoolers everywhere!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

One of the toughest lessons for middle schoolers is learning to feel confident in their own skin, and that\u2019s exactly the lesson in each of the Nat Enough<\/em> graphic novels! In Nat Enough<\/em>, Natalie has never felt that she’s enough — athletic enough, stylish enough, or talented enough \u2013 and when her best friend ditches her for another \u201ccooler\u201d girl, she must find her own authentic path. Now, in Forget Me Nat<\/em>, things get even more complicated as she navigates one of the most complicated journeys of middle school: her first big Crush (we\u2019ve all been there!<\/em>) Jim Davis, creator of Garfield, says: “Maria writes funny, Maria draws funny, and Maria does it with a ton of heart.” We agree!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
