Bücher von Jody Dyer

Join Noah, a chubby, insecure fifth grader, as he dreads his school's Field Day. Laugh and learn as Noah's athletic friend Elliot teaches him a valuable lesson about confidence and personal achievement.

Jody Dyer slaps humor on everyday life as skillfully as a veteran line cook throws country ham on a flat top grill. Readers compare her to Lewis Grizzard and Fannie Flagg, but Dyer has a unique, modern, edgy voice with Appalachian roots and universal appeal. In Theories: Size 12, readers gain a new perspective on marching bands, zoos, sports parents, teachers, outdoor weddings, tailgates, bicycle guys, and much, much more. Dyer says what we're all thinking but afraid to say, and she does so with a rare combination of fearless wit and literary finesse-a combination as lip-smacking good as pinto beans and cornbread. In Theories: Size 12, Go On, Get Mad, But You Know You'll Agree, readers will find a friend, and many laughs, on every page.
