In James Patterson's first highly illustrated "diary fiction" story for teens, the mega-bestselling author's most endearing and original teen heroine ever proves that everyone can use a helping hand once in a while.
Margaret
"Cuckoo" Clarke recently had a brief stay in a mental institution
following an emotional breakdown, but she's turning over a new leaf with
her "Happiness Project". She's determined to beat down the bad vibes of
the Haters, the Terror Teachers, and all of the trials and tribulations
of high school by writing and drawing in her diary. And when life gets
really tough, she works through her own moments of uncertainty through
imaginary conversations with her favorite literary characters.
About the Author:
In January, 2010, The New York Times Magazine
featured James Patterson on its cover and hailed him as having
"transformed book publishing." Time magazine named him "The Man Who
Can't Miss," and he is a two-time Children's Choice Book Award "Author
of the Year" nominee, a designation decided on by more than 15,000
children and teen readers.
In
the past three years, James Patterson has sold more books than any
other author (according to Bookscan), and in total, James's books have
sold an estimated 260 million copies worldwide. Since 2006, one out of
every seventeen hardcover fiction books sold was a Patterson title. He
is the first author to have #1 new titles simultaneously on The New York Times adult
and children's bestsellers lists and is the only author to have five
new hardcover novels debut at #1 on the list in one year—a
record-breaking feat he's accomplished every year since 2005. To date,
James Patterson has had nineteen consecutive #1 New York Times
bestselling novels, and holds the New York Times record for most Hardcover Fiction bestselling titles by a single author (76 total), which is also a Guinness World Record.
From
his James Patterson Pageturner Awards (which rewarded groups and
individuals for creative and effective ways of spreading the joy of
reading) to his website ReadKiddoRead.com (which helps adults find books
that kids are sure to love) to his regular donations of thousands of
books to troops overseas, Patterson is a lifelong champion of books and
reading. His critically acclaimed Maximum Ride series debuted on the New York Times bestsellers
list at #1 and remained there for twelve straight weeks. The series has
so far made ninety-four cumulative appearances on The New York Times bestsellers
lists, proving that kids of all ages love page turners. He captured the
attention of boy readers with Daniel X series, and his third series for
readers of all ages debuted in December 2009 with Witch & Wizard,
which spent five consecutive weeks atop the New York Times bestsellers list.
Patterson
is the creator of the top-selling new detective series of the past
dozen years, featuring Alex Cross and including the Hollywood-adapted
"Along Came a Spider" and "Kiss the Girls," starring Academy
Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman. He is also the creator of the #1 new
detective series of the past five years, featuring Lindsay Boxer and
the Women's Murder Club, from which the ABC television drama series was
adapted. He has authored books behind six films on the Hollywood
fast-track, including the upcoming Maximum Ride movie forthcoming from
Avi Arad, the producer of X-Men and Spiderman.
He
is the author of novels — from The Thomas Berryman Number (1976) to
Honeymoon (2005) — that have won awards including the Edgar, the BCA
Mystery Guild's Thriller of the Year, the International Thriller of the
Year award, and the Reader's Digest Reader's Choice Award. And, he has
won a Children's Choice Book Council's Children's Choice Awards "Author
of the Year" award (2010).
