Books with author Gareth Williams

For college sophomore Marlo Sage Henderson, living with his grandmother instead of on campus means curfews that he never really follows, chores he always seems to forget and lectures that he simply just ignores. Spring break can't come fast enough. Hanging with his boys, meeting hot co-eds, hitting up clubs and enjoying the sun and sand in Southern California is all he can think about. He'll be far from his church-centered grandmother's watchful eye, so he can do what he wants without worrying about the consequences. But when a chance encounter with a headstrong girl sends his plans veering sideways, he is completely thrown off of his game. Maybe she has what it takes to show Sage what it means to truly be committed to something real. Or maybe he will tear her heart apart. In Sympatheia, everything in the universe in organically connected, and one moment of recklessness can change everything. It can also destroy everyone around you, and create the perfect villain in the one person you never thought could ever hurt you.

No one has illustrated animals with as much warmth, humor, and realism as Garth Williams. This classic–full of piglets, kittens, calves, and bunnies–is one of his best. Simple, humorous text identifies each fuzzy, furry, or feathery farm animal capering about the farm. This longtime favorite has been reissued for a new generation of kids, who will “pet” the animals on each page over and over again!
