Jerry Spinelli
Jerry Spinelli — 3 titles in the rankings, first published between 2000 and 2007. They average 7.6, below the 7.8 the whole catalogue averages.
Editor’s note American children’s author who won the Newbery Medal for Maniac Magee (1990) and a Newbery Honor for Wringer, both about boys standing apart from the crowd. Stargirl (2000), about a homeschooled girl whose cheerful oddness first charms and then unsettles her Arizona high school, became a cult favourite and a 2020 Disney+ film; Love, Stargirl (2007) is told in her own letters. Milkweed (2003) follows an orphan boy surviving in the Warsaw Ghetto. Start with Stargirl, or Maniac Magee for younger readers.
