When we pulled this out of the box from Mackin, Sara and I both thought "huh?!" Did I accidently order this instead of another copy of Pelzer's story with the same name? I still haven't checked my original list, but I took this one home to read anyhow.
It's written at about a second or third grade level, but is about a seventeen-year-old who's torn between basketball, his job with his uncle, and helping a homeless boy. It's clean and has a positive message. I think some of our students will appreciate this title.
It's book 7 in a series, but I'm not buying others unless I have students who want them.
