Fans of Kate DiCamillo and R. J. Palacio will love The Thing About Georgie, a warm and humorous story starring an unforgettable young boy with dwarfism, from acclaimed author Lisa Graff. "An upbeat and sensitive look at what it's like to be different, this novel will spark discussion.” (Booklist) As far as Georgie is concerned, everyone has a "thing." The thing about poodles is that Georgie Bishop hates to walk them. The thing about Jeanie the Meanie is that she would rather write on her shoe than help Georgie with their Abraham Lincoln project. The thing about Andy's nonna is that she kisses Georgie's cheeks and doesn't speak one word of English. The thing about Georgie's mom is that she's having a baby—a baby who will probably be taller than Georgie very, very soon. The thing about Georgie . . . well, what is the thing about Georgie?

Lisa Graff is the critically acclaimed and award-winning author of the National Book Award nomineeA Tangle of Knots, as well asLost in the Sun,Absolutely Almost,Double Dog Dare,Umbrella Summer,The Life and Crimes of Bernetta Wallflower,The Thing About GeorgieandSophie Simon Solves Them All. Originally from California, she lived for many years in New York City and now makes her home just outside of Philadelphia.
