"I have an idea," she said and with those four words, Ethan Parker’s quiet life was set on fire. 
Janet Rhodes doesn’t fit in anywhere, least of all in a high school classroom. She's fierce, impulsive, and impossible to ignore, exactly the kind of girl who turns detention into destiny. When she crashes into Ethan’s life, what starts as annoyance becomes intrigue and then something deeper neither of them expected. 
Thrown together by circumstance and later by choice, Ethan and Janet navigate school, secrets, and the messy reality of growing up too fast. But as their bond deepens, life throws curveballs that no teenager should have to face. 
Told with sharp dialogue, aching tenderness, and unflinching emotional depth, Ethan & Janet is a powerful story of two teens learning what it means to fight for love, to choose family, and to believe, against all odds, that broken things can still become whole.

When Petey Corbin is born in 1920, no one knows about cerebral palsy. After struggling to care for her frail infant who is often racked by seizures, Petey's mother reluctantly places him in an asylum. There, he is labeled an idiot and ignored. Few people look beyond his twisted body to see the intelligence in his eyes. Then another young resident, Calvin Anders, arrives in Petey's ward. As he learns to understand Petey's garbled sounds, Calvin becomes his spokesman and best friend. Years later, however, they are separated when Petey is moved to a nursing home. Alone and withdrawn, Petey wonders if he will ever find another person who understands him. Ben Mikaelsen, award-winning author of Rescue Josh McGuire, Stranded, and other popular books for young adults, has crafted a poignant tale of friendship and triumph over disabilities. Petey was chosen by the New York Public Library as one of its 100 Books for Reading and Sharing, and it won the Western Writers of America Award.
