Totally Joe by James Howe
Really funny. My 12 year old son even loved it and he's straight! As a school assignment, Joe writes his alphabiography- the story of his life from A to Z. Realistic look at a gay teen in middle school. James Howe(who by the way is gay himself) is a very prolific writer. This book is a sequel to The Misfits which tells the story of 4 unlikely friends, one of which is Joe. The Misfits inspired National No Name Calling Week which can be sponsored at any school.
