Two teams, six innings, one game. A lively cast of
characters--baseball-loving boys between the ages of eleven to
thirteen--are playing the biggest game of their lives. With
acrobatic catches, clutch hits, dramatic whiffs, and costly errors,
this game is full of action. But as the book unfolds, pitch by
pitch, a deeper story emerges, with far more at stake: Sam and
Mike, best friends, are trying to come to terms with Sam's newly
diagnosed cancer. And this baseball diamond becomes the ultimate
testing ground of Sam and Mike's remarkable friendship as they
strive to find a way to both come out winners.
This is for the championship.
This is for life.

Eric is the new kid in seventh grade. Griffin wants to be his
friend. When you're new in town, it's hard to know who to hang out
with--and who to avoid. Griffin seems cool, confident, and
popular.
But something isn't right about Griffin. He always seems to be in
the middle of bad things. And if Griffin doesn't like you, you'd
better watch your back. There might be a target on it.
As Eric gets drawn deeper into Griffin's dark world, he begins to
see the truth about Griffin: He's a liar, a bully, a thief. Eric
wants to break away, do the right thing. But in one shocking
moment, he goes from being a bystander . . . to the bully's next
victim.

The summer before his senior year, Jude (yes, he's named after
the Beatles song) gets his first job, falls in love for the first
time, and starts to break away from his parents. Jude's house is
kept dark, and no one talks much--it's been that way since his
little sister drowned in a swimming pool seven years ago when Jude
was supposed to be watching her.
Now, Jude is finally, finally starting to live. "Really" live. And
then, life spins out of control. Again.
Acclaimed author James Preller explores life, death, love, faith,
and resilience in his first young adult novel. "Before You Go" will
grip readers from the book's dramatic first few pages to its
emotional end.
Spider Stevens and Trey Cooper have lived next door to each other
their entire lives. Their houses are on the odd-numbered side of
Maple Street, which seems just about right.
Because, well, Trey Cooper is a little odd himself.
It didn't matter when they were little kids --- you know, way
back in second grade. And it doesn't matter so much when they're at
home on Maple Street. That's just Trey being Trey.
But it matters in the fifth grade.
The whole class thinks Trey is weird. Does that mean Spider has
to turn his back on his oldest friend?
