Jerry Spinelli still remembers the Sunday night when he was awakened by a phone call. His novel, Maniac Magee, had just won the 1991 Newbery Medal. Jerry and his wife, Eileen, were so excited that they stayed up all night and went out to a local diner to celebrate. "Life hasn't been the same since," Spinelli recalls.

In addition to "Maniac Magee,"Jerry's books include "Stargirl," "Love, Stargirl" and "Wringer."
