Synopsis
Will Sam’s best friend turn out to be a bully? He’s about to find out in this “strong and refreshingly straightforward” (School Library Journal) MAX novel.
Sam Lewis is going to get his butt kicked in exactly thirty-three minutes. He knows this because yesterday his former best friend Morgan Sturtz told him, to his face and with three witnesses nearby, “I am totally going to kick your butt tomorrow at recess.”
All that’s standing between Sam and this unfortunate butt-kicking is the last few minutes of social studies and his lunch period. But how did Sam and Morgan end up here? How did this happen just a few months after TAMADE (The Absolutely Most Amazing Day Ever), when they became the greatest Alien Wars video game team in the history of great Alien Wars teams? And once the clock ticks down, will Morgan actually act on his threat?
Told with equal parts laugh-out-loud humor and achingly real emotional truth, 33 Minutes shows how even the best of friendships can change forever.

From Booklist
The title notwithstanding, it takes 95 eventful minutes between 11:41 a.m. and 1:16 p.m. for nerdy middle-school math whiz Sam to experience the terror of knowing that he is going to get his butt kicked by former best buddy Morgan; possibly acquire a girlfriend; be clobbered by a salad bowl during a massive food fight; and then actually get his butt kicked after joining a chaotic science-lab evacuation due to arson. Along with making protracted fun of clueless teachers, school lunches, and other traditional targets, the story chronicles the dissolution of a long childhood friendship due to diverging interests and abilities. Sam fills in the background history and grudgingly reveals that the widening rift is at least as much his fault as it is Morgan’s. This portrays a common preadolescent life change with fair insight; readers will enjoy the general tumult and perhaps find reassurance in seeing that, by the end, Sam and Morgan have so thoroughly gone their separate ways that even their enmity has vanished. Grades 5-8, --John Peters
