Restart

by Gordon Korman

A bully's memory reset gives him a chance to become someone worth remembering.

Chase does not remember falling off the roof, in fact he does not remember anything about himself, and when he gets back to middle school he begins to learn who he was through the reactions of the other kids--trouble is, he really is not sure he likes the Chase that is being revealed, but can he take the opportunity amnesia has provided and restart his life?

What this book is about

Chase Ambrose was the meanest kid in school — until he fell off a roof and woke up with no memory of who he was. Now, without the weight of his reputation, he discovers he might actually be a decent person, if his old victims will let him forget the person he used to be.
