Description
Joey Jeremiah wants to be a rock star--so much so that he couldn't care less about school. He's got his band, the Zit Remedy, and his buddies to hang out with, and everything seems great.
So when Joey fails grade eight, he's in shock. Now everyone will think he's stupid. Even bandmates Wheels and Snake can't understand how he feels. But when Joey sees an ad for a Battle of the Bands, he gets an idea: he'll show he's not so dumb when the Zit Remedy wins and he's on the road to rock stardom!
Based on the groundbreaking Degrassi Junior High television series, this book offers a sensitive and engaging look at the challenges of teenage life.
