Ninja Boy Goes to School

From N. D. Wilson, bestselling author of the 100 Cupboards series, comes this funny and adventurous picture-book debut. It’s time for kindergarten, and a young boy is prepared for the task, thanks to his unflinching ninja skills. The challenges of school are no match for a ninja, with his quick reflexes and immense patience. Featuring colorful and dynamic illustrations by J. J. Harrison, Ninja Boy Goes to School will have all little ninjas eager to learn how to balance like flamingos and gain the strength of gorillas (but without having to smell like one). Perfect for energetic free-spirits of all ages!

Winner of the 2015 Children's Choice Award!

"Lots of fun details and BAM! POW! kid-appeal." - School Library Journal

"Any kid who’s longed for a break in the school day to work out some energy and frustration will cheer Ninja Boy’s mission . . ." - The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
