My Life, The Total Disaster : A Novel by Matt

A boy’s dreaded chore becomes a cause worth fighting for in an award-winning, heart-lifting, and hilarious novel about friendship, community, and self-discovery. When disaster-prone twelve-year-old Matt Pesce accidentally sets his neighbor’s hedges on fire, his parents sentence him to community service at a senior center. But what help can Matt possibly be to the likes of the General, who’s glued to old war documentaries, a pair of elderly chess champions, and the ladies of the knitting club? While his coolness cred at school may have taken a dive, Matt never guessed he’d light such a spark in the lives of his unlikely new friends. A bonus is a teen volunteer who is, without a doubt, the most beautiful girl Matt has ever seen. But when the bank threatens to close the center, Matt embarks on a mission to save it―with a plan so monumentally brilliant he’s trademarked it. Join the unforgettable Matt in this prize-winning novel from Italy, as he rewrites his story and just maybe finds his place in the world too.Author: Richards, Jamie,translator,Muzzopappa, Francesco,author Contributors: Richards, Jamie,translator,Muzzopappa, Francesco,author Binding: hardcover Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 14 Jul 2026 Format: Hardback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Amazon Publishing Author/Director/Artist: Francesco Muzzopappa Dimension (cm): 216x140x25 mm Package Dimension (cm): 20x221x144 mm Item Weight (g): 340 Package Weight (g): 330
