Feeling like a failure, he comforts himself with food. Garvey is kind, funny, smart, a loyal friend, and he is also overweight, teased by bullies, and lonely. When his only friend encourages him to join the school chorus, Garvey's life changes. The chorus finds a new soloist in Garvey, and through chorus, Garvey finds a way to accept himself, and a way to finally reach his distant father-by speaking the language of music instead of the language of sports.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wordsong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52207740354848,"sku":"NEW1629797405","price":13.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/719LsOdmUXL.jpg?v=1787125297","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/garveys-choice-1629797405","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
