About this ebook
Luckily, the perfect remedy is close at hand: an empty plastic soda bottle. All Nate has to do is drum it gently against his head—thunka, thunka, thunka—and the pressures of dealing with Coach John, Mrs. Godfrey, and the terrifying Kim Cressly begin to fade away. Who knew an empty bottle could be so therapeutic? There’s only one stress-buster that’s better: reading Big Nate comics! So sit back, relax, and enjoy this latest collection, Thunka, Thunka, Thunka.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Good book love IT amzing big boooty baka eeeeeeeeee eeeeee
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Big Nate: Thunka, Thunka, Thunka is a collection of comic strips that tell short stories and will make you laugh. Nate is in grade 6 and is dealing with the types of problems adolescents face every day. The book is made up of secions that are made up of several short comics. Some of the storylines are Hallowe'en, his baseball team and their name, getting in trouble at school and his dog who is in love with a cat.
There are some stories that refer back to stories from previous books, but you do not need to read them in order to enjoy them. All in all, a funny enough series.
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This Big Nate book had me laughing hysterically. I liked how the stories were intertwined so you would always be at the edge of your seat!
