Rebound
This is the prequel to Kwame Alexander's Newbery Award winning book, The Crossover. In this novel written in verse, the twins' father, Chuck Bell, is 12 years old and has just suffered a tragedy in his life. He is sent to spent the summer at his grandparents' home. During that summer, he rebounds in many ways and learns to cope with his loss. This is a beautifully written story that students will love, with its rhythmic lines and catchy graphic images illuminating Chuck's daydreams. (FIC ALE)
