Dear Evan Hansen

                           Emmich, V. (2018). Dear Evan Hansen: the novel. New York: Poppy.

After a chance encounter, lonely and anxious Evan Hansen is mistakenly believed to have been the only friend of a classmate who committed suicide. Leaning into the lie, Evan's newfound popularity and platform to speak wars against his conscience and anxiety in a realistic and character-driven novel about not fitting in, kindness and honesty. Dear Evan Hansen started as a play before being adapted into a book and now a 2021 movie. This story has gone from stage to page to screen and been appreciated in every form.
