Brave Like That

Lindsey Stoddard (author of Just Like Jackie and Right as Rain) has done it again with this heartwarming realistic-fiction story about being comfortable in your own skin.  For Cyrus it isn't easy.  Everyone expects him to be a star football player like his dad.  But he hates playing.  He also hides the fact he can't understand what he reads.  He's a great faker. He needs to redefine his labels, like a crayon in a story his teacher read.  And he needs to find HIS bave.  His brave doesn't have to be fighting fires like his dad - it can be standing-up-and owning-who-you-are brave.  (FIC STO)
