Synopsis:

Matt Sprouts is back for another laugh-out-loud adventure! It’s been a few months since Matt defeated “the Curse,” and if you thought that was bad, get ready to meet Matt’s latest challenge—Nora the goat. 

After defeating “the Curse,” twelve-year-old Matt Sprouts just wants to chill—until Dad hands him an unusual summer job: pet-sitting a very peculiar goat named Nora who sports glassy eyes, a short tail, and a knack for mischief (she even eats a science fair project!). Between goat wrangling, soccer, cross-country, helping his girlfriend Grace with her science fair, and dodging a scary character named Jason, Matt discovers that relaxing is way harder than he thought.

This hilarious follow-up to the bestselling Matt Sprouts and the Curse of the Ten Broken Bones is the second adventure in middle school teacher and Instagram sensation Matt Eicheldinger’s lively new series, perfect for older elementary school students and reluctant readers.

Praise for the series:

“Funny, heartwarming, and impossible to put down, [The Curse of the Ten Broken Toes] is a must-read for anyone trying to survive the perils of middle school.” – Dustin Brady, bestselling author of Trapped in a Video Game and other series.

“Matt Sprouts is the next star of middle-grade comedy! Matt Eicheldinger expertly draws from his life to create this heart-warming and fun illustrated series.” – Jarrett Krososzka, New York Times bestselling author and National Book Award Finalist 

“This is the kind of book that makes a kid stay up past their bedtime, reading with a flashlight under the blanket.” – Nina Hamza, bestselling author of Ahmed Azis's Epic Year 

“This humorously captivating tale perfectly captures both the excitement and listlessness of a middle school summer.” – Terrance Crawford, bestselling author of the Piggy series

About the Author: Matt Eicheldinger wasn't always a writer. He spent most of his childhood playing soccer, reading comics, and trying his best to stay out of trouble. Little did he know those moments would ultimately help craft the first book in his debut novel series, Matt Sprouts and the Curse of Ten Broken Toes. Matt lives in Bloomington, Minnesota with his wife and two children, and tries to create new adventures with them whenever possible. When he's not writing, you can find him telling students stories in the classroom or trail running along the Minnesota River Bottoms.
