There's
so many wonderful things to say about John Green, but we'll keep it short and
sweet.
A stint working in a children’s hospital, on his way to Episcopal priesthood, inspired Green to write The Fault in Our Stars and take his life in a different direction.
Green is YouTube famous, alongside his brother Hank, originally for
issuing one another a challenge to correspond through video only for an entire year. These posts reached
a wide audience who became enamored with their humour and antics and have followed the brothers since.
He knows he’s a huge nerd, and we mean HUGE. And he’s cool with that. We’re cool with that.
His childhood experiences are worn as a badge, not a cry
for attention. He speaks to his young adult audiences about the effects of bullying, overcoming, and how much better life gets.
Just a few small tidbits about the author of this month's novel, in hopes that you are inspired and continue to support John Green - keep enjoying his books!
