A gift! --#1 New York Times-bestselling author Jason Reynolds
Shake's dream of making the varsity basketball team is in peril when he gets injured. Can he rebound and make his way back onto the court--and back to feeling like himself? For fans of Kwame Alexander and Jason Reynolds. Beautifully designed with illustrations.Absolutely vibrating with energy and heart . . . a masterful middle-grade novel. --Newbery Honoree Jasmine Warga
Malik Page--though unless you're his mama, call him Shake--dreams of making the Marshall Grove varsity basketball squad as an eighth grader. Then he'll be on his way to joining the ranks of Chicago legends like his pops and late Uncle Kenny. But when Shake fractures his ankle in a championship game, he's sidelined for the first time since his first dribble. As his world is turned upside down, Shake feels like there's ginger ale bubbling in his chest and sweat slicking on his palms. With a best friend who's getting more distant by the day, a growing silence between him and his dad, and varsity tryouts fast approaching, Shake will have to cross up every obstacle to find a way back onto the court--and back to being himself. Thankfully in Marshall Grove, the sky is always full of hope. Perfect for readers who love:
● Sports Stories (though non-sports fans, you'll love this one too!)
● Short, Quick Reads
● Hopeful Depictions of Anxiety and Mental Health
● A Main Character Who Exudes Swagger
● Humor and Heart Readers, make permanent room on your shelves--and in your hearts-- for this witty and poignant novel. --National Book Award winner Elizabeth Acevedo
Stunning. This book is powerful. --Newbery Medalist Tae Keller Witty, electric and profound, Randall's verse dribbles, twists and weaves highlighting the complicated inner world of a middle-school boy with nuance and care. --National Book Award Finalist Amber McBride
