Hank Zipzer hates fifth grade already - and it's only his first day.

Everyone has to pick a favourite sport, but Hank can't run, he can't catch and he can't throw.

Luckily, he's a whizz at table tennis. This a sport, right?!

Inspired by the true life experiences of Henry Winkler (The Fonz in 'Happy Days'), whose undiagnosed dyslexia made him a classic childhood underachiever, the Hank Zipzer series of 10 books is about the high-spirited and funny adventures of a boy with learning differences.
