Book Overview

MICHAEL L. PRINTZ MEDAL WINNTER - NATIONAL BESTSELLER - From A.S. King and an all-star team of contributors comes an anthology of stories about remarkable people and their strange and surprising collections.

"An eclectic, poignant, and introspective treasure trove."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"Masterfully collected and worth slowing down to absorb."--School Library Journal, starred review

From David Levithan's story about a non-binary kid collecting pieces of other people's collections to Jenny Torres Sanchez's tale of a girl gathering types of fire while trying not to get burned to G. Neri's piece about 1970s skaters seeking opportunities to go vertical-- anything can be collected and in the hands of these award-winning and bestselling authors, any collection can tell a story. Nine of the best YA novelists working today have written fiction based on a prompt from Printz winner A.S. King (who also contributes a story) and the result is itself an extraordinary collection.

Contributing Authors: M. T. Anderson, e. E. Charlton-Trujillo, A.S. King, David Levithan, Cory McCarthy, Anna-Marie McLemore, G. Neri, Jason Reynolds, Randy Ribay, and Jenny Torres Sanchez.
