“Narrator J. B. Adkins’ Southern accent is apparent but not overly dramatic. He uses this nuance to capture eleven-year-old Lincoln Jones, who is mocked by his new classmates for his drawl. Adkins also captures Lincoln’s humorous takes on life and his habit of hiding the truth…Adkins also reflects Lincoln’s emotional development as he comes to understand his mother’s difficult situation, the heartbreaking condition of dementia, the harsh realities of aging and death, and the necessity to be honest with others and with himself.”

Award-winning author Wendelin Van Draanen gives us a fresh and funny story about a boy learning to become the brave hero of his own life. Perfect for fans of Counting by 7s and The Fourteenth Goldfish.
My secret life is filled with psychic vampires, wheelchair zombies, chain-rattlin’ ghosts, and a one-eyed cat. But they’re nothing compared to my real-life stalker: a sixth-grade girl named Kandi Kain …
Lincoln Jones is always working on the latest story he’s got going in his notebook. Those stories are his refuge. A place where the hero always prevails and the bad guy goes to jail. Real life is messy and complicated, so Lincoln sticks to fiction and keeps to himself. Which works fine until a nosy girl at his new school starts prying into his private business. She wants to know what he’s writing, where he disappears to after school, and why he never talks to anybody.
The Secret Life of Lincoln Jones is a terrifically funny and poignant story about a boy finding the courage to get to know the real characters all around him—and to let them know him.
