The Kids of Widney Junior High Take Over the World! is a fun-filled story for middle grade readers ages 8 to 12 inspired by the real-life Kids of Widney High, a rock band made of members with developmental disabilities, and offers readers fresh thoughts on how to better interact with classmates and friends living with disabilities. 



Before they became the world-famous Kids of Widney High, they first had to survive junior high! This rock band, composed entirely of members with developmental disabilities, loves to put on a show, but boy can they can get into fights, trouble, and sticky situations. Join their friend and honorary assistant manager Robbie as he introduces the band members and shows us how they're just like everyone else. From cafeteria food fights to relationship woes, Robbie finds himself immersed in an incredible adventure to get everyone onboard for the big concert while better understanding his new friends with special abilities. Junior high can be tough, but this group of rambunctious misfits is ready to entertain and loves to have a good time! 



Comes with an exclusive interview and free downloadable songs from the Kids themselves.
