“Students have told me that if not for Myers’s books, they would not read.”—Jessica Fenster-Sparber, Library Coordinator, Passages Academy

Advance praise for All the Right Stuff:
“All the Right Stuff will introduce readers to the ‘social contract’ debate within political philosophy—while demonstrating that books can be as alluring as smartphones and other high-tech distractions.”—Peter Minowitz, Professor of Political Science at Santa Clara University

Praise for We Are America:
“Few will be unmoved by this stirring and provocative collaboration.”—PW (starred review)

“Stunning.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Praise for Kick:
“A masterful collaboration...that will inspire readers of any age.”—Family Circle

“The respective voices and characters play off each other as successfully as a winning, high-stakes soccer match. How about another collaboration”—ALA Booklist

“With Myers, there are always many layers beneath the surface of the story, and this is no exception. Workman offers a fresh voice as Kevin and more than holds his own as a writer, writing alongside an icon of young adult literature.”—VOYA

“An involving blend of mystery and sports, ably delivered in two convincing voices.”—BCCB
