Praise

Praise for Who Done It?
 
“Go buy this book for your kids. Every kid on the planet needs this book. And the extra bonus is that proceeds from Who Done It? benefit 826nyc, the literacy non-profit founded by Dave Eggers!”
—NCBLA Executive Director Mary Brigid Barrett
 
“Well worth a read.”
—The Guardian (UK)
 
“Wonderful and fun to read. Included in these pages is some fabulous description, lots and lots of creativity…[will] keep even the pickiest teen happy for hours.”
—Tulsa Books Examiner

“Curl up and check out the laugh-out-loud alibis.”
—Justine Magazine

“Who Done It? is essentially a who’s who of fabulous YA…And they’re all talking. But someone’s lying. The ‘alibis’ range from poetry to comics, and are hilarious.”
—Persephone Magazine

“With a lively blend of self-incrimination and finger-pointing, Who Done It? will keep readers guessing to the end.”
—Shelf Awareness

“Filled with in-jokes and carried to ridiculous extremes by a mammoth stable of YA and children’s authors…clever.”
—Kirkus Reviews
 
“The finger-pointing and self-incrimination begin in every form imaginable…David Levithan offers his alibi in verse….Indeed, the pen is being used mightily to drum up support for creative writing; proceeds from sales will benefit Dave Eggers’ (another among the accused) 826 program in New York.”
—Booklist
