For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate comes the first book in a side-splitting illustrated series from comedian and film star Craig Robinson, #1 New York Times bestselling author Adam Mansbach, and NACP History Maker recipient and cartoonist Keith Knight.

Which is a real problem because Jake just faked his way into the Music and Art Academy for the gifted and talented (and Jake is pretty sure he is neither).

Featuring more than 160 illustrations, Jake the Fake is sure to bring the laughs with his hilarious high jinks
