TIME Magazine’s Top Ten Children’s Books of 2015
"Tiny Cooper stole our hearts." —Entertainment Weekly
Especially for those of us who ordinarily feel ignored, a spotlight is a circle of magic, with the strength to draw us from the darkness of our everyday lives.
Watch out, ex-boyfriends, and get out of the way, homophobic coaches. Tiny Cooper has something to say—and he’s going to say it in song.
Filled with honesty, humor, and “big, lively, belty” musical numbers, Hold Me Closer is the no-holds-barred (and many-bars-held) entirety of the beloved musical first introduced in Will Grayson, Will Grayson, the award-winning bestseller by John Green and David Levithan.
Tiny Cooper is finally taking center stage . . . and the world will never be the same again.
“Tiny will have readers falling out of their chairs laughing. . . . It's big. It's gay. It's outrageous and hilarious.” —Kirkus Reviews

★"Tiny’s passion for composing a big, beautiful life and a big, beautiful show overflows in thisthoroughly magical book.” —BCCB, starred review
★"Tiny Cooper . . . gets his own star turn." —Publishers Weekly, starred review

“This novel/play just ....omg I just loved it.
Will Grayson, Will Grayson was not a book I loved, and the parts I did love were mostly the ones where Tiny and Will were building their relationship, so it was such a good experience to learn more about Tiny and what he's been going through.
PLUS, this book/novel got me out of a reading slump, so there's that.”
