When Zachary Beaver Came to Town by Kimberly Willis Holt Book Summary

National Book Award Winner

The red words painted on the trailer caused quite a buzz around town and before an hour was up, half of Antler was standing in line with two dollars clutched in hand to see the fattest boy in the world.

Toby Wilson is having the toughest summer of his life. It's the summer his mother leaves for good; the summer his best friend's brother returns from Vietnam in a coffin. And the summer that Zachary Beaver, the fattest boy in the world, arrives in their sleepy Texas town. While it's a summer filled with heartache of every kind, it's also a summer of new friendships gained and old friendships renewed. And it's Zachary Beaver who turns the town of Antler upside down and leaves everyone, especially Toby, changed forever.

With understated elegance, Kimberly Willis Holt tells a compelling coming-of-age story about a thirteen-year-old boy struggling to find himself in an imperfect world. At turns passionate and humorous, this extraordinary novel deals sensitively and candidly with obesity, war, and the true power of friendship.

When Zachary Beaver Came to Town is the winner of the 1999 National Book Award for Young People's Literature. This title has Common Core connections.

Great Story. I read this book a few years back and I really enjoyed it. It's an excellent story and very well told!

A good author. Mrs.Holt came to my school and she signed my book of When Zachary Beaver Came to Town saying "dear rylee, i hope u like my book" and she signed her signature

Dumb. This book is stupid. It is boring and CA ruined it. The movie is even dumber. This should be free, and even then I wouldn't get it. DO NOT GET THIS BOOK!

Greatness. I read the book and it was good now I'm expecting to watch the movie in a week or so

Awesomely awesome book of the world. What made you think of Toby's mom going to Nashville, Tennessee and Wayne dying? P.S. you wrote one of my top favorite books and I have a lot !!!!!!! ;-)
