Alex Gino loves glitter, ice cream, gardening, awe-ful puns, and stories that reflect the diversity and complexity of being alive.
When Alex started writing GEORGE in 2003, they had no idea how long a journey it would be, but the hole in childrens literature was clear, and they knew how they wanted to fill it. Now, after countless revisions, breaks of frustration, and days spent staring at drafts willing them to be better, Alex is delighted and proud to present GEORGE to the world.

Amie Kaufman
"Nestled between fast-paced action and vivid imagery, Kaufman deftly shares with us the heartache of lives diverging, of losing the one person who has always been with you in the fight against the world. I feel this story so deeply and I want more!"
