The Dumbest Idea Ever!
By Jimmy Gownley
The Dumbest Idea Ever The Dumbest Idea Ever by Jimmy Gownly is one of the best books I've ever read. It's about the author's life from early elementary school all the way up to his senior year in high school. Jimmy encounters trouble with schoolwork, crushes, and even chicken pox. He stays up all night every night, trying to think of new ideas for a comic book that will hopefully change his life. When his best friend suggests making it about their lives he just laughs in his face. Later on, when he catches pneumonia and misses his championship Basketball game he thinks for a while. Maybe a graphic novel about themselves isn't such a bad idea. Jimmy isn't only the protagonist but the antagonist as well. Jimmy realizes that he has been causing most of his own problems and writing this book can turn things around and make him more popular. I really liked this book because I think that there is a Jimmy in everyone and no one is perfect. Anyone can achieve greatness if they put their mind to it.
