PERFECT! Google Books has a preview of this book - you can read the first five pages to see if you think you're going to like it. If your school is anything like ours, there will be a waiting list for this one.

I forgot to ask - what did you think of the first five pages?

I like that Mike Lupica is very descriptive and all his books have some sort of moral. In this book I like that even though he's shy the kid gets through it.

Is it awful that I have never read a Mike Lupica book? Your comment, especially the part about the books always having a moral and the author's descriptiveness, will make kids want to read this! Great job, DN!
