⏱️ About the Book
The crushing stress of trying to balance school expectations, sports, and social life leads Harold to a major, public burnout.
Harold Mitchell is thirteen years old and trying to do it all. Between endless homework, extracurriculars, and trying to maintain a social life, he is running on fumes—until he spectacularly crashes during the most important week of the term.
This is the story of what happens when you say "yes" to too many things, and the hilarious, exhausted reality of learning how to set healthy boundaries.
