I
would rate the book 4.5 out of 5 because I think it has a great plot. The
author uses some great diction. One bad thing about the book was that it was a
little slow. I would advocate this book to anyone who likes baseball or sports.
It is also a great book for people who like fictional stories. Summary- This
book is about a 12 year old gifted baseball player Michael Arroyo. The story
takes place in New York near the Yankees stadium. After being an outstanding
player in his team and district, he got into a situation in which his age was
questioned by coaches from different teams. He had no way to prove it because
he has no mother, no father, and no birth certificate as it was at his native
place, Cuba. If he could not prove his age he would not be allowed to play
anymore for his team and if people know about his secret then he would be
separated from his brother. If you like to know what happen to him read the
book.
Discussion question- What would
you do if you are in Michael’s place?
