"With a bolt of
lightning on my kicks . . .The court is SIZZLING. My sweat
is DRIZZLING. Stop all that quivering. Cuz tonight I’m
delivering," announces dread-locked, 12-year old Josh
Bell. He and his twin brother Jordan are awesome
on the court. But Josh has more than basketball in his
blood, he's got mad beats, too, that tell his family's story
in verse, in this fast and furious middle grade novel
of family and brotherhood from Kwame Alexander (He Said,
She Said 2013). Josh and
Jordan must come to grips with growing up on and
off the court to realize breaking the rules comes at a
terrible price, as their story's heart-stopping climax
proves a game-changer for the entire family.
