A Schneider Family Book Award Honor Book<\/font><\/span><\/p>\n

Jake volunteers at a nursing home because he likes helping people. He likes skating and singing, playing Bingo and Name That Tune, and reading mysteries and comics aloud to his teachers. He also likes avoiding people his own age . . . and the cruelty of mirrors . . . and food. Jake has read about kids like him in books\u2014the weird one, the outsider\u2014and would do anything <\/span>not <\/span>to be that kid, including shrink himself down to nothing. But the less he eats, the bigger he feels. How long can Jake punish himself before he <\/span>truly <\/span>disappears?<\/p>\n

A fictionalized account of the author\u2019s experiences and emotions living in residential treatment facilities as a young teen with an eating disorder, <\/span>Louder Than Hunger<\/span> is a triumph of raw honesty. With a deeply personal afterword for context, this verse novel is a powerful model for muffling the destructive voices inside, managing and articulating pain, and embracing self-acceptance, support, and love.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
