When twelve-year-old Jordan Patel's parents skip the tutorial on their new VR headsets, they don't just get stuck in the game-they BECOME their avatars.
His mom turns into PwnStarPriya, a trash-talking gamer who calls everyone a noob and yells GG ez at soccer refs. His dad becomes Gandor the Wise, a Level-99 wizard who pays for gas with buttons and tries to Fireball the toaster.
With only seven days until Parent-Teacher Night, Jordan must help his parents earn 100 Empathy XP through real-life interactions. Because if they don't log off soon, the avatar lock becomes PERMANENT.
Packed with humor, heart, and 87 granola bars, this is a story about learning that people are more important than profiles, that real life beats any level, and that you are always more important than your avatar.
If you've ever watched someone you love turn into their avatar... if you've ever been the avatar... if you've ever yelled GG ez and then had to learn to say Good job... this book is your patch notes.
Freaky Friday meets Ready Player One in this laugh-out-loud family adventure that will leave you cheering for the power of real-life connections.
