Overview
Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
Part legend, part real kid, Jeffrey “Maniac” Magee is a boy who runs through boundaries—literal and figurative. This Newbery Medal-winning novel explores deep social themes through a child’s eyes: homelessness, racial division, and the need for connection.
Told with Jerry Spinelli’s signature heart and humor, Maniac Magee remains a classroom favorite for upper elementary and middle school readers. Its rich themes provide endless opportunities for discussion about equity, identity, and community.
