Stuntboy books in order

Ages 8–12 · about grade 3 hybrid · still going

There are 2 Stuntboy books. Start with Stuntboy: In the Meantime (2021) and read them in number order. The newest is book 2, In-Between Time (2023). Peabody's own estimate: library catalogs give 7 to 12 and Bookroo shows 7 to 10 for the first book and 7 to 12 for the second, and we could not open the publisher's page.

What reading it is like: Short chapters mixing prose and busy, colorful pictures, with a chatty narrator who stops to explain things.

Do you have to read Stuntboy in order?

Read the two books in order. The second picks up with the same boy, his friends and his building, and it leans on things that happen in the first. Each has its own problem to work through, so a reader who starts with book 2 will still follow it, but book 1 first is the better way in.

What age is Stuntboy for?

Eight to twelve is Peabody's estimate, not a reading level, and the sources we saw disagree a little. The pictures carry a lot of the story, and a chatty narrator explains the hard words, so readers a year or two younger often manage it, especially when someone reads along. We don't print reading-level scores: they belong to the companies that make them.

What's it like inside Stuntboy?

  • Words: Lots of words on a page.
  • Panels: Words with a picture beside them, part comic and part chapter book.
  • Colour: Colour.
  • Which way: Left to right, like most books.
  • Length: Book 1 has 256 pages.
  • Feels: Funny, sad bits. His parents argue a lot, and he worries.

About book 1. The page count is from openlibrary.org; the rest is Peabody's own note, never a score.
