Eleven-year-old Tony Weaver, Jr. loves comic books, anime, and video games, and idolizes the heroic, larger-than-life characters he finds there. But his new classmates all think he’s a weirdo. Bullied by his peers, Tony struggles with the hurt of not being accepted and tries to conform to other people's expectations. After a traumatic event shakes him to his core, he embarks on a journey of self love that will require him to become the hero of his own story.
From rising star Tony Weaver, Jr., Weirdo is a triumphant and comedic story for any kid who's ever felt awkward, left out, or like they don't belong—perfect for fans of Jerry Craft's New Kid.
