「我想畫出動物與人類無聲的陪伴,以及放手讓親人離去後家裡的嶄新世界。」──馬尼尼為。
我希望自己是作家,拿著筆,就有了力氣。能夠記憶,也能夠忘記。能夠捏造,也能夠毀滅。這種力氣的欲望來自一個卑微的不滿的心。來自書,也來自抹布。

18) I Can't Take It!
Life can be stressful for Nate Wright. At school, Mrs. Godfrey makes every day a nightmare. At home, he's stuck between Ellen, his incredibly annoying older sister, and Dad, perhaps the most clueless parent of all time. And don't get him started on Gina, the ultimate teacher's pet, or Artur, the unassuming exchange student who bests him at every turn. It's enough to make even a can-do kid like Nate scream: "I CAN'T TAKE IT!"
Can Nate Wright get any cooler? Not according to Nate himself. He's already P.S. 38's rockin'est drummer, finest poet (check out his haiku about brazil nuts), and deepest thinker—in his own mind. But does Nate have what it takes to hang with Marcus, leader of the school's most notorious posse? Or will he decide that being cool isn't all it's cracked up to be? Read Say Good-bye to Dork City... and say hello to lots of laughs!

He finds a $20 bill, scores a C+ on his social studies test (nailed it!), and even lands a movie date with the captain of the cheer squad.
