Kick Me: Adventures in Adolescence

Description

Written in side-splitting and often cringe-inducing detail, Paul Feig takes you in a time machine to a world of bombardment by dodge balls, ill-fated prom dates, hellish school bus rides, and other aspects of public school life that will keep you laughing in recognition and occasionally sighing in relief that you aren't him. Kick Me is a nostalgic trip for the inner geek in all of us.

Paul Feig is a movie and television writer, director, and producer. He is a two-time Emmy nominee and lives in Los Angeles.

"It's shocking that one person could have so many humiliating experiences and even more shocking that he chose to remember them. Kick Me is like an unofficial prequel to Freaks and Geeks. If anything, Paul Feig's real stories are actually more harrowing than what his fictional characters went through." -Ira Glass, host of This American Life "I love Paul Feig's sense of humor-in a platonic way. This book is hilarious. I recommend it to people like me. And to people who don't like me." -Garry Shandling "Paul Feig's Kick Me is an astute study of growing up in the seventies that thinks it's a happy-go-lucky humor book."-Joel Hodgson, creator of Mystery Science Theater 3000
