Marcus Makes It Big

By: Kevin Hart, Geoff Rodkey

Narrated by: Dion Graham, Kevin Hart

From celebrity author Kevin Hart comes the laugh-out-loud sequel to Marcus Makes a Movie about a young boy who has big Hollywood dreams—and the hustle to make it happen.

"Everybody, grab a ticket and run for a front row seat to Marcus Makes a Movie!" —Judd Winick, New York Times bestselling author of the Hilo series

Marcus’s movie, Toothpick vs. the Doom, is a HIT! But the only thing harder than making a movie is making a SECOND one. Marcus needs to come up with another great idea fast. Too bad his film crew (aka friends) are too preoccupied with their MeTube channels to notice. An invite to The Helen Show has Marcus thinking they’ll be back on top, but will nerves, unchecked ambition, and a rivalry between friends shut down this show before it even begins?

In the laugh-out-loud sequel, actor and comedian Kevin Hart delivers a message about being creative, working hard, and learning that sometimes the best dreams are the ones you achieve with your friends.

The is an awesome and interesting story about young people, thanks so much for writing this series. will be looking forward to the next one

So funny and entertaining!

This book was selected for my daughters elementary school, Battle of The Books. Out of the 10 books she had to read, this was the one that we enjoyed the most listening to and reading. We didn't want to stop once we started listening to it cause it was so funny. Primo donut..lol!

What a ride!

This story brings out all the emotions throughout the journey from beginning to end. It is a very well crafted story with the types of literary feels I'd expect from a book written for grown-ups e.g. James Patterson-esque. All this encompassed in a story and characters built to resonate with kids and teenagers of all ages. Me and my 5 and 6 year old boys loved every minute of the drama. We also had lots of good laughs throughout.

What happened?

Extremely obnoxious and repetitive in A LOT of places. Missed the KH narration; this story seemed more like a fill-it with-fluff storyline. Disappointed.
