Why read it?
1 author picked Everything Matters! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved this book because it’s one of the funniest books I’ve ever read, and its protagonist, Junior Thibodeau, knows something no one else knows. It’s a secret given to him in the womb: he knows when the world will end.

From Bruce's list on a protagonist who has extraordinary capabilities.
