Gr 3–5—David and Michael are two typical students who have been tagged with terrible nicknames, which have moved with them from grade to grade. Their experiences with bullying are shared through David's first-person account, which is filled with cartoon-style illustrations throughout. David and Michael are understood only by David's grandfather. The boys' bond with Grandpa Johnny is heartwarming. Problems with divorced parents and foster parents are addressed but only in passing. Many of the boys' attempts to impress classmates are chuckle-worthy, and readers will laugh at their made-up words and cheer on these two likable boys and their friend Anna Brittannica. Unlike other books about bullying, this one offers alternative solutions to handling everyday situations—for instance, the boys often calmly respond, "Uh huh, right back atcha!" The simple lessons will speak to bullies and bullied alike. The title may deter some adults, but kids will embrace the silliness and enjoy this relatable tale. VERDICT A solid addition to collections serving upper middle grade and middle school readers. Hand to fans of goofy, realistic school stories.—Elizabeth Swartz, Warrior Run School District, PA
"I have one word for this book: SUPERWONDERRIFIC!"
―Jerry Spinelli, Newberry Medal-winning author of Maniac Magee and Stargirl
"This book is light and mighty. Funny and honest. And, in the words of one kid (who lives in my house), 'It's like he wrote about the people in my school (minus the limos and flufferknuckles, of course). Pottymouth and Stoopid is really, really good."
―Kwame Alexander, Newberry Medal-winning author of The Crossover
"A deeply satisfying twist that turns two seventh-graders haunted by nicknames bestowed in preschool into culture heroes. Readers will applaud as the two best buds find themselves at the head of a veritable army of geeks and brains with similarly disparaging nicknames. 'Awesometastic!'"
―Booklist
"Patterson and Grabenstein, the team behind the I Funny series, introduce two beleaguered but resilient seventh graders. As the boys struggle with their unfair reputations, the authors tackle bullies, unexpected friendships, and family troubles with comedy and poignancy. Gilpin's cartoons build on the story's many jokes, interludes from classmates and family members flesh out the boys' world, and the friends' hard-fought victory feels very well earned."―Publisher's Weekly
"Pottymouth and Stoopid take on bullies and tough times with friendship and the power of funny!"
―Eric Kahn Gale, author of The Bully Book
"Readers can't help but laugh at the antics David and Michael perform, but through their story, readers are shown that the worst bullying is not always physical."―School Library Connection
"Readers will be amused by Pottymouth and Stoopid's shenanigans [...] Entertaining."―Kirkus
"A funny, poignant tale of two quirky boys who suffer from years of endless teasing. Pottymouth and Stoopid triumph in the end, but only after reminding us how painful bullying can be. Boys are going to love this story."
―Dr. Michael Thompson, New York Times bestselling co-author of Raising Cain
"Silly, insightful and triumphant...You'll remember this book and these boys for a long time."
―Carrie Jones, New York Times bestelling author of the Need series, Time Stoppers, and co-editor of Dear Bully
