Can a worrier really become a warrior? Nine-year-old Erik
Sheepflattener’s life motto is Avoid Stuff, despite his
family’s attempts to bring out his inner Viking. In this
outrageously quirky, "funny and perceptive"* novel . . . why
not be both? (*Booklist, starred review) Meet Erik
Sheepflattener. Each member of his modern-day Viking-heritage
family has a motto to live by. His parents have Family and
Pride. His sisters have Conquer and Win. His
grandfather has Turnip. But Erik is developing a motto he can truly
believe in: Avoid Stuff. Mostly, Erik’s fierce family ignores or
discounts him, especially when he tries to say no. But while
spending the summer with his rough-and-tumble cousins and older
sister Brunhilde in Minnesota, axe-wielding Bru gets the idea
to name and Conquer all of Erik’s fears. Will anyone hear
him say no before it’s too late? And will Erik end up
defined by his fears, or by his fearless family? Erik vs.
Everything is an adventurous, humorous, and
heartfelt romp about finding your place, speaking up
for yourself, and pursuing what you love . . . even when it scares
you.
