I think I have read every single Big Nate comic book that has been published, and I love them all! They are so funny and just a great break in between books to just relax and have fun. I love the antics that Nate has with his friends and teachers. If you haven't checked out this comic book, you should.

I remember reading Big Nate when I was younger. I love that he is still around for my kids to read.

We love Big Nate in our house. Always a good time. This new book does not disappoint!

This collection of paneled cartoons is the twenty-second entry in the “Nate the Great” series, which is now an animated TV series on Nickelodeon and Paramount+. In this latest edition, middle schooler Nate and his fellow students start a new school year and deal with being a seventh grader, a crush on a girl, and the usual high-jinks for which the series is known. Nate is white with black hair, and his middle school friends represent various ethnicities. The teachers also represent a variety of races, including the Black principal, and the adults are well rounded and not the usual stereotypes found in some cartoons. The full-color cartoon artwork with ink outlines and dialogue balloons add a lot of details to the stories. Not particularly original but funny and sure to be popular.

Big Nate you keep me entertained, always. This one did not disappoint. I will certainly be getting copies of this for our school library. If you have a kiddo who loves an entertaining laugh out loud graphic novel, look no further!

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I love the Big Nate books. Peirce does such a good job of creating a kid who would like to believe that he is smooth and worldly but he is actually usually short of the mark. In this collection, we get to see that in a series of stories including the low-flying corn muffin incident where Nate gets the coach in the head. We also find out that Nate and his nemesis Mrs. Godfrey share a surprising interest. Nate almost loses his status as the king of gossip around school.

Four stars

Big Nate is a total crowd pleaser for the 4th grade boy in my house. He loves the format (graphic novel) and Nate himself. He's really relatable and fun without that annoying wimpy kid vibe!

'Big Nate: Beware of Low-Flying Corn Muffins' by Lincoln Peirce is the 26th volume of the Big Nate series.

This time around, the Corn Muffin in the title gets Nate into detention. Nate tries to get free treats from the bakery that sponsors his baseball team. He also gets in a contest at school to find out who can find the best gossip story.

You know what you're getting with this series. If you enjoy other volumes like I have, you will enjoy this one too.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Europe Comics and NetGalley. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

The illustrations were great. I have never read a Nate book before. It was an easy read with lots of “little stories” as I would call them. I did not like how Nate seemed negative and was degrading adults and other kids. There is enough if that in the world, than to have to read it. It seemed as if Nate had no respect.
I like the title of the book, but there was only a very brief section that related to the title. I thought the title was catchy and there was be a good story behind it.
I spoke to some of my students and asked if they have any read any of the books, since there are several. Some stated they did, but did not like them. They felt Nate was mean.

Kids will love the latest adventure of Nate and his friends as they navigate 6th grade and all of the obstacles that come their way, including hitting a teacher smack in the head with a corn muffin! I will admit that some of Nate's whining and antics got to me this time around and I spent some of the time being thankful he wasn't my kid and the rest laughing at just how goofy he really is. I would never ever want to go back to that time [even though Middle School was awesome for me, especially 6th grade] as I know that middle school can be brutal for some kids - I am glad they have books like Big Nate to give them some laughter in their daily life.

Thank you to NetGalley, Lincoln Peirce, and Andrews McMeel Publishing for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Great addition to the Big Nate series! Storyline was funny as always and the illustrations are vibrant and easy to follow along. Some of the content was a little difficult for younger readers to understand or interpret.

I read this new Big Nate book with my 8 year old who loves the Big Nate series. He said it is his favorite of the graphic novels so far. He loves the story and had a lot of moments of giggling throughout. It is a good, clean, fun story for elementary age students to read on their own or as a family.

In this volume, Nate is involved with a corn muffin incident (quite funny how he explained it), Mrs Godfrey and Nate discover a shared love (p.s. its a SF TV series), but that does not change their dynamic. Cats are still Nate's bane, even when he is rescued by one. And the Cupcakes are still leaving crumbs all over the field. In other words, sit back and enjoy the Big Nate fun!

Thanks Netgalley for the opportunity to read this title!

typical big Nate full of funny comics and a semi over arching story. I cant wait for it to be out in stores so I can read a physical copy too.

This graphic novel follows Nate and his friends through a typical school year for a middle schooler.

He faces crushes, nemesis teachers, dealing with bullies, having the best pets ever, the horror of liking the same thing as a teacher, navigating friendships, learning new skills and more in a way only a hilarious mischievous kid can.

My kids love this series and I can see it being a big hit with their age group (8-11).

Review to come Mid-February on blog/goodreads.

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

Yas! It was time for a new Big Nate with a terrific and hilarious title! This is one of the comic-filled books and not the graphic novel with text one. I love both, but I was definitely in for some comics.

This time a new school year and plenty of detentions and silly things happening. Oh Nate, why aren't you learning. XD I had a lot of laughs while reading this one. From corn muffins to Dee Dee and Nate's competition to see who has the better gossip blog (which leads to some hilarious situations and Nate wondering if he really has all the right sources) to sports (chess, soccer, baseball, and even golf, yes there is a lot of sports). There are new excuses and some had me laughing and some had me shaking my head. Nate, how in the heavens did you think that was a good one? There is a lot happening in this time and I was in for it. I know that no matter how boring a day, Nate makes it funny. Either unintentionally or intentionally. And I absolutely LOVED that Star Trek the Next Generation is mentioned, though, haha, I wonder how many kids know that show given the age of that. 

And of course there are the holidays. Halloween and Christmas. Dressing up and mall Santa's (who is also the picture guy, yes, this guy is doing all the jobs). 

There is also a part on the HP series. My inner fangirl was excited, but my rational side was also shaking her head given all that Rowling did (and is still doing). 

And yes, the corn muffins come back in the story and I loved it! It wasn't just a funny title, oh no, there is a story along with it! 

All in all, tons of fun and I am happy I had the change to read this one~ Recommended.

Big Nate is back again! This is a fun collection of comics featuring Big Nate and all of his friends, as they navigate the minefield of sixth grade (with airborne corn muffins). A little bit Peanuts, a little bit Calvin and Hobbes and a whole lot of unique Big Nate style, my kiddo devoured it!


~Many thanks to NetGalley for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review~

Honest review from my nine year old daughter:

I love the Big Nate stories, and loved this new one. As always, it was funny and made me laugh throughout. The drawings were wonderful and really expressed the characters’ emotions.

Can’t wait to read more in the future.

I loved this book! Some Big Nate books feel repetitive, especially with the recurring Nate trying to hit on Jenny storyline, so I'm glad this book strayed away from that. I've noticed a larger amount of cameos of Deedee in recent books, and I'm so glad that her character's being fleshed out, along with Chad and other new side characters being introduced!

Some highlights include
- halloween storyline
- Nate and Godfrey having the same favorite tv show!
- Nate and Deedee competing to see who can find better gossip. Deedee's story is Nate having a crush on Gina.
- Chad finessing the baseball team sponsor for free desserts

Overall, I'm really glad that the same storylines aren't being reused over and over again, and it's nice to see so much fresh content!

This book was hilarious, just like the other big nate books. I loved the comics and the small stories. This is a great book!

The latest in the Big Nate graphic novel series (#26). Nate and friends are perpetually dealing with life in the sixth grade. This has him returning to school, getting detention on day two, engaging in a gossip gathering contest, running out of excuses for not completing homework and dealing with the fact that a teach and he both love the same tv show. The art work is consistently good and colorful. Big Nate isn't as popular in my elementary school library as he once was but has enough of a following I've already ordered this book. I anticipate a new animated series on Nickelodeon will renew interest. Was happy to get a sneak peak thanks to the NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing in exchange for a review.
