The Odd 1s Out: How to Be Cool and Other Things I Definitely Learned from Growing Up

Hilarious stories and advice about
the ups and downs of growing up, from popular YouTube artist and
storyteller, James Rallison.
Like any shy teen turned young adult, YouTube star James Rallison
("The Odd 1s Out") is used to being on the outside looking in.
He wasn't partying in high school or winning football games like
his older brother. Instead, he posted comics on the Internet. Now,
he's ready to share his hard-earned advice from his 21 years
of life in the funny, relatable voice his fans love.

In
this illustrated collection, Rallison tells his own stories of
growing up as the "odd one out": in art class with his twin sister
(she was more talented), in the middle school locker room, and
up to one strange year of college (he dropped out). Each story is
filled with the little lessons he picked up along the way, serious
and otherwise, like:

• How to be cool (in seventh grade)


• Why it's OK to be second-best at something, and


• How to survive your first, confidence-killing job interviews.

Filled with fan-favourite comics and never-before-seen material,
this tongue-in-cheek take on some of the weirdest, funniest parts
of life is perfect for both avid followers and new converts.
