Are We There Yet? (2005)
Sixteen-year-old Elijah is completely mellow and his 23-year-old brother Danny
is completely not, so it’s no wonder they can barely tolerate one another. So
what better way to repair their broken relationship than to trick them into
taking a trip to Italy together? Soon, though, their parents’ perfect solution
has become Danny and Elijah’s nightmare as they’re forced to spend countless
hours together. But then Elijah meets Julia, and soon the brothers
aren’t together nearly as much. And then Julia meets Danny and soon all three
of them are in a mixed-up, turned-around, never-what-you-expect world of
brothers, Italy, and love.
Are We There Yet? isn’t about a place on a map, it’s about a place in
the heart. David Levithan has written a magical story of a journey definitely
worth taking.

Boy Meets Boy
(2003) --
Winner 2003
Lambda Literary Award
for
Children/Young Adult)
This is the story of Paul, a sophomore at a high
school like no other: The cheerleaders ride Harleys, the homecoming queen used
to be a guy named Daryl (she now prefers Infinite Darlene and is also the star
quarterback), and the gay-straight alliance was formed to help the straight
kids learn how to dance.
When Paul meets Noah, he thinks he’s found the one his heart is made for.
Until he blows it. The school bookie says the odds are 12-to-1 against him
getting Noah back, but Paul’s not giving up without playing his love really
loud. His best friend Joni might be drifting away, his other best friend Tony
might be dealing with ultra-religious parents, and his ex-boyfriend Kyle might
not be going away anytime soon, but sometimes everything needs to fall apart
before it can really fit together right.
This is a happy-meaningful romantic comedy about finding love, losing love,
and doing what it takes to get love back in a crazy-wonderful world.
Wide Awake (2006)
In the not-too-impossible-to-imagine future, a gay
Jewish man has been elected president of the United States. Until the governor
of one state decides that some election results in his state are invalid,
awarding crucial votes to the other candidate, and his fellow party member.
Thus is the inspiration for couple Jimmy and Duncan to lend their support to
their candidate by deciding to take part in the rallies and protests. Along
the way comes an exploration of their relationship, their politics, and their
country, and sometimes, as they learn, it's more about the journey than it is
about reaching the destination.
Only David Levithan could so masterfully and creatively weave together a plot
that's both parts political action and reaction, as well as a touching and
insightfully-drawn teen love story.

The Full Spectrum: A New Generation of Writing About Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender,
Questioning, and Other Identities (2006), Edited with
Billy Merrell
-- Co-Winner 2006
Lambda Literary Award
for Children/Young Adult
Teens are more aware of sexuality and identity than
ever, and they’re looking for answers and insights, as well as a community of
others. In order to help create that community, YA authors David Levithan and
Billy Merrell have collected original poems, essays, and stories by young
adults in their teens and early 20s. The Full Spectrum includes a
variety of writers—gay, lesbian, bisexual, straight, transitioning, and
questioning—on a variety of subjects: coming out, family, friendship,
religion/faith, first kisses, break-ups, and many others.
This one of a kind collection will, perhaps, help all readers see themselves
and the world around them in ways they might never have imagined. We have
partnered with the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and a
portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to them.
