"National Book Award winning author Pete Hautman brings us a middle grade novel that tweens will devour. In Slider, readers enter the world of competitive eating, navigate changing dynaics of family and friends, and enjoy a lot of laughs. " - Seira Wilson, Amazon Editor

Competitive eating vies with family expectations in a funny, heartfelt novel for middle-grade readers by National Book Award winner Pete Hautman.

David can eat an entire sixteen-inch pepperoni pizza in four minutes and thirty-six seconds. Not bad. But he knows he can do better. In fact, heâ€™ll have to do better: heâ€™s going to compete in the Super Pigorino Bowl, the worldâ€™s greatest pizza-eating contest, and he has to win it, because he borrowed his momâ€™s credit card and accidentally spent $2,000 on it. So he really needs that prize money. Like, yesterday. As if training to be a competitive eater werenâ€™t enough, heâ€™s also got to keep an eye on his little brother, Mal (who, if the family believed in labels, would be labeled autistic, but they donâ€™t, so they just label him Mal). And donâ€™t even get started on the new weirdness going on between his two best friends, Cyn and HeyMan. Master talent Pete Hautman has cooked up a rich narrative shot through with equal parts humor and tenderness, and the result is a middle-grade novel too delicious to put down.
