loser is on of my favourite books ever! I did it for a bookreport once! this story is sbout a boy who turns from zero to hero and tries to fit although he doesn't understand that nobody likes him until on field day, he really understands he's unwanted
Connie

This book is awsome because I'm just like Zinkoff because I never win and I'm diffrent from other kids.

I know I am 21 years old, but I am a going to be a teacher someday. I found this book sadly reministent of my own childhood. Being a nerdy fubbleing dork was easy, but dealing with the socail pressures is what made it so tough. This story is sad but true for many students in schools.

I'm a 12 year old and I thought that Loser was a terrific book. It was funny but it also taught you many lessons. For example, it taught you to think on the positive side during even the worst of times. I loved it and I'm sure you will too. i just wanted to know where does this book take place?

This Book is amazing. You learning some much about the character , you grow up with him. It makes you laugh, cry, angry, and so much more. Any one who knows english should read it.
