Résumé
Seventh-grader Gary "Goon" Boone tells jokes constantly. He thinks he's funny; his parents, teachers, and classmates don't. They just think he's obnoxious. Hearing about a school talent contest, Boone signs up, sure that his performance will launch his career as… a stand-up comic. but as the contest nears, he becomes aware of how others perceive him and drops out of the contest to just be "normal." Grades 5-8. 1991.
