[edit] Plot summary
Seventh-grader Jason Herkimer tells his tale of life before, during, and after seventh grade. The chapter titles describe the main focus of the story told in the chapter. Throughout seventh grade he has to deal with things like monster-size pimples, goody-goody Marceline Mcallister, being the slack-off the football team, and trying to impress his crush Debbie Breen.

Spinelli wrote about the same characters in Jason and Marceline (1986).
