"This romantic comedy is pure fun."Kirkus Reviews, starred review "A welcome gust of fresh air."BCCB Unlike Hucky Harper, Steve Kluger turned six years old long before iPods (but well after they invented Oreos). When he was in fifth grade, he read A Wrinkle in Time and immediately wrote a fan letter to Madeleine L'Engle, who replied, "I wouldn't be surprised if you grew up to be an author yourself." He took her advice. He is the author of Last Days of Summer, Almost Like Being in Love, and Changing Pitches. (booksense)… (more)

Steve Kluger on tour for My Most Excellent Year.

1:00 PM to 3:00 PM

The staff at McLean & Eakin is always stunned when we discover a reader who has not yet had the pleasure of meeting Joey Margolis, for he is our most beloved baseball-loving-Hitler-fearing-White-House-corresponding-Hebrew-talking youngster of all time! It is simply shocking to know that there are customers out there who've not yet had a copy of Last Days of Summer placed in their hands. It is equally exciting, however, for us to know that we can then introduce someone new to this story of Joey and his unlikely friendship with his baseball hero. In short, we love this book, and have for the entire decade of its life on earth.

How then could we not be utterly thrilled to host Steve Kluger in the store this summer? (Especially when his newly released young adult novel, My Most Excellent Year, is about baseball and is oh-so-funny too...) Be sure to mark your calendar right now, for you won't want to miss this event! (compskibook)… (more)
