THE KING OF AVERAGE is a fantasy-adventure story that combines the wit and wordplay of “The Phantom Tollbooth” with a rollicking odyssey of self-discovery told with a lot of humor aimed at middle grade readers. It tells the story of James an eleven-year-old boy who copes with loneliness and a poor self-image in a very imaginative way.
