Summary
He can’t have died. Crutchie was--well, Crutchie. He was just as capable as any newsie, could sell papes twice as well as half of them, and was stronger than anyone Jack knew--certainly far stronger than himself. But if Snyder--if the Refuge--if--
“He’s alive,” Katherine hurried to say, kneeling on the floor beside him, and Jack let out a choked laugh, only just realizing he was crying.
“Ya couldn’ta said that sooner?” he asked weakly.

Summary
“In 1899, the streets of New York City echoed with the voices of newsies, peddling the papers of Joseph Pulitzer, William Randalph Hearst, and other giants of the newspaper world. On every corner you saw them carrying the banner. Bringing you the news for a penny a pape. Poor orphans and runaways, the newsies were a ragged army without a leader, till one day all that changed…for Brooklyn, too."
Battered, bruised, and orphaned best friends run for their lives after a terrible fire destroys everything they've known.
The orphans become newsies, working for a penny a paper. As time passes, they work up the ranks of their separate boroughs.
Two of the orphans get sent to the Refuge. They almost lose their lives and their hearts. The trauma brings the boy and girl closer together than ever. They learn to stand up for what's right, without fear.
Jack Kelly does what’s right when he starts the Newsboys Strike of 1899. Josie Conlon does what's right when she stands by his side once again.
Together they will change the ideals of a nation and maybe fall for each other all at once.

Summary
A tragedy occurs in the Jacobs family, preventing David and Sarah from getting into college. As much as Davey adores his family, he can't stand the feeling of guilt anymore and packs up his life to move to a small but lively village in the English countryside. Jack Kelly, who had no interest of attending college, spontaneously follows him out of the country, accidentally forcing his friend, Antonio, into it. The three of them eventually make themselves at home. Soon they notice strange things happening in the town, and are curious to investigate.
This is inspired Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series of books.

Summary
When they hit the final chord, Jack is puffed out. Scattered applause and cheering echoes from the audience. Crutchie smiles at the crowd and waves at them.
Jack shyly glances down at the people closest to the stage, and he catches the eye of a man, clapping politely.
Easily the most beautiful man Jack has ever seen.
The man looks so out of place in a bar like this; his clothes are clean and his hair is meticulously combed back. The man's hazel eyes meet Jack's, and he smiles. Jack's heart melts right then and there.
~
New York, 1970. Jack Kelly is barely getting by, living in a tiny apartment with five other boys and his electric guitar. At least he has the band. When his band begins performing, a boy keeps returning to watch every show. The last thing Jack expects is to fall in love, not with a girl, but with that boy. A boy named David Jacobs.
