Mendel the Mess-Up

$10.99

Cursed from birth, Mendel Schlotz is the unluckiest kid in his village.
He’s also the only one who can save it.

Ask anyone—twelve-year-old Mendel can’t do anything right. When he tries to herd goats, they get out. When he tries to chop wood, he breaks the ax. It’s embarrassing to be called “Mendel the Mess Up,” but it’s worse to be so clumsy that he can’t even stand to read aloud without destroying the classroom. Nobody expects Mendel to keep out of trouble… least of all himself.
