Fiction
  • 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)

  • Journey Through the Lost Canyon (2001)

  • You Are Here This Is Now: The Best Young Writers and Artists in America (2002)
    Astonishing. Remarkable. Perceptive. These are just three of the adjectives that could be applied to the work in this collection. Drawn from the winners of the 1999, 2000, and 2001 Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, this anthology is a groundbreaking document of voices and visions from the front lines of today's youth.

  • Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003) (2003)
    The case: Unmask a rogue FBI agent, and protect HALO: The Hidden Alias List Objective -- the witness protection program. HALO's list of witnesses has been encrypted into a pair of titanium rings, but one of the rings has gone missing. Now federal witnesses are at risk of being uncovered by any hacker. But not if the Angels can help it! From Hollywood premieres to race-car chases -- and a secret from Dylan's past -- it's head-to-toe glamour and nonstop action for the independent women who always win!.  Ages 9 - 12

  • The Perfect Score  (2004)
    Some exams try to define who you are....
    The S.A.T. defines who you will be.

    It's not about what you know. It's not about learning. It's about how well you take the test. And if the Educational Testing Service isn't going to play fair, neither are these six high school seniors.

    They have one common goal -- to steal the answers to the S.A.T. -- and six different reasons for doing it.  Ages 9 - 12.

  • The Realm of Possibility (2004) -- Finalist 2004 Lambda Literary Award for Children/Young Adult)
    Enter The Realm of Possibility and meet a boy whose girlfriend is in love with Holden Caulfield; a girl who loves the boy who wears all black; a boy with the perfect body; and a girl who writes love songs for a girl she can't have. These are just a few of the captivating characters readers will get to know in this intensely heartfelt new novel about those ever-changing moments of love and heartbreak that go hand-in-hand with high school. David Levithan plumbs the depths of teenage emotion to create an amazing array of voices that readers won't forget. So, enter their lives and prepare to welcome the realm of possibility open to us all. Love, joy, and these stories will linger.

  • Are We There Yet? (2005)
    Sixteen-year-old Elijah is completely mellow and his 23-year-old brother Danny is completely not, so it’s no wonder they can barely tolerate one another. So what better way to repair their broken relationship than to trick them into taking a trip to Italy together? Soon, though, their parents’ perfect solution has become Danny and Elijah’s nightmare as they’re forced to spend countless hours together. But then Elijah meets Julia, and soon the brothers aren’t together nearly as much. And then Julia meets Danny and soon all three of them are in a mixed-up, turned-around, never-what-you-expect world of brothers, Italy, and love.

    Are We There Yet? isn’t about a place on a map, it’s about a place in the heart. David Levithan has written a magical story of a journey definitely worth taking.

Disaster Zone Series
Ages 9 - 12
  1. In the Eye of the Tornado (1998)

  2. In the Heart of the Quake (1998)

Gay-Themed
  • Boy Meets Boy (2003) -- Winner 2003 Lambda Literary Award for Children/Young Adult)
    This is the story of Paul, a sophomore at a high school like no other: The cheerleaders ride Harleys, the homecoming queen used to be a guy named Daryl (she now prefers Infinite Darlene and is also the star quarterback), and the gay-straight alliance was formed to help the straight kids learn how to dance.

    When Paul meets Noah, he thinks he’s found the one his heart is made for. Until he blows it. The school bookie says the odds are 12-to-1 against him getting Noah back, but Paul’s not giving up without playing his love really loud. His best friend Joni might be drifting away, his other best friend Tony might be dealing with ultra-religious parents, and his ex-boyfriend Kyle might not be going away anytime soon, but sometimes everything needs to fall apart before it can really fit together right.

    This is a happy-meaningful romantic comedy about finding love, losing love, and doing what it takes to get love back in a crazy-wonderful world.

  • Wide Awake (2006)
    In the not-too-impossible-to-imagine future, a gay Jewish man has been elected president of the United States. Until the governor of one state decides that some election results in his state are invalid, awarding crucial votes to the other candidate, and his fellow party member. Thus is the inspiration for couple Jimmy and Duncan to lend their support to their candidate by deciding to take part in the rallies and protests. Along the way comes an exploration of their relationship, their politics, and their country, and sometimes, as they learn, it's more about the journey than it is about reaching the destination.

    Only David Levithan could so masterfully and creatively weave together a plot that's both parts political action and reaction, as well as a touching and insightfully-drawn teen love story.

  • Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2006) with Rachel Cohn
    It all starts when Nick asks Norah to be his girlfriend for five minutes. He only needs five minutes to avoid his ex-girlfriend, who’s just walked in to his band’s show. With a new guy. And then, with one kiss, Nick and Norah are off on an adventure set against the backdrop of New York City—and smack in the middle of all the joy, anxiety, confusion, and excitement of a first date.

    This he said/she said romance told by YA stars Rachel Cohn and David Levithan is a sexy, funny roller coaster of a story about one date over one very long night, with two teenagers, both recovering from broken hearts, who are just trying to figure out who they want to be—and where the next great band is playing.

    Told in alternating chapters, teeming with music references, humor, angst, and endearing side characters, this is a love story you’ll wish were your very own. Working together for the first time, Rachel Cohn and David Levithan have combined forces to create a book that is sure to grab readers of all ages and never let them go.

  • The Full Spectrum: A New Generation of Writing About Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, and Other Identities (2006), Edited with Billy Merrell -- Co-Winner 2006 Lambda Literary Award for Children/Young Adult
    Teens are more aware of sexuality and identity than ever, and they’re looking for answers and insights, as well as a community of others. In order to help create that community, YA authors David Levithan and Billy Merrell have collected original poems, essays, and stories by young adults in their teens and early 20s. The Full Spectrum includes a variety of writers—gay, lesbian, bisexual, straight, transitioning, and questioning—on a variety of subjects: coming out, family, friendship, religion/faith, first kisses, break-ups, and many others.

    This one of a kind collection will, perhaps, help all readers see themselves and the world around them in ways they might never have imagined. We have partnered with the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) and a portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to them.
