Why read it?
1 author picked Don't Care High as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This comic young adult novel—about a Canadian transplant who moves to a big weird New York City school and finds himself just one friend, and then with that friend, is moved to challenge his fellow students to connect and care about their school, their classmates, and even themselves—is undeniably silly.
But it’s also a great illustration about the power of friendship and connection among a big group of formerly alienated individuals. And it’s a tonne of fun. I have a hard time reading aloud from this book because I laugh so hard I cannot breathe.
From Rebecca's list on community and connection.
