Award-winning author Nikki Grimess beloved novel in verse Garveys Choice is now a graphic novel, imaginatively and dramatically illustrated by Little Shaq artist Theodore Taylor III.
Garveys father has always wanted Garvey to be athletic, but Garvey is interested in astronomy, science fiction, reading--anything but sports.
Feeling like a failure, he comforts himself with food.
Garvey is kind, funny, smart, a loyal friend, and he is also overweight, teased by bullies, and lonely.
When his only friend encourages him to join the school chorus, Garveys life changes.
The chorus finds a new soloist in Garvey, and through chorus, Garvey finds a way to accept himself and a way to finally reach his distant father--by speaking the language of music instead of the language of sports.
Garveys Choice was a School Library Journal Best Book, a Kirkus Reviews Best Book, a Lee Bennett Hopkins Poetry Award Honor Book, and a Paterson Prize for Books for Young People Honor Book.
With Theodore Taylor IIIs full-color illustrations, this graphic novel edition is enthralling and inspiring.
