I loved it! Norbert is such a sweet guy, so kind and helpful to everyone around him-almost to a fault. I loved his relationship with his mom and the growth that he and his students experienced throughout the story. It also helped that I’m a huge wrestling fan so that was fun to read as well!

Fun book. Aged for middle grade and pre teens. I did enjoy. It was a quick read. This was the first book I have read by Frank Morelli and his writing makes me want to read more of his books and ones geared towards middle grade.

This is cute. It wasn't for me, just not my taste, but I am very sure others will love it. It simply did not suit me.

Lovely read.
I would like to thank the publisher and netgalley for giving me a chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review

Norbert is a real softy, and I mean it in the sweetest way possible - he's a lovely and kind English teacher with a lot of pets, incredible shyness and a few extra pounds of weight. But he's not all soft - he's got a secret tough side, which is that he's actually a pro wrestler at night. He works as one trying to get a dream trip to Greece for his mother, in the true softy fashion (he is ADORABLE.) We follow Norbert through his journey of finding himself and his strength - also friends and respect from his students and workmates. It's a really really adorable story which made me feel all warm inside. It's also got these cute drawings! I read it in an evening and it was definitely worth my time - it made my blue mood go away for sure ❤️

I thank the publisher for giving me a free copy of the ebook through NetGalley. It has not affected my opinion.
