Eighth-grader Jared Shotpouch loved lacrosse—until his grandmother moved them off the reservation. Now he's at a new school and on a new team where nothing feels right. The other kids tease Jared about everything from his last name to his long, braided hair—and the worst bullies are his own teammates. Can Jared prove his skills on the field and teach his teammates about the origins of lacrosse at the same time?

      Gr 2-4-In these latest additions to the popular sports-themed chapter books for kids, readers will meet a girl who joins a boys' football team at her new middle school, a soccer player who must to learn to play with his teammates in mind, a softball player who struggles mightily with her temper and impulsive decisions, and a Cherokee boy who deals with some bullies on his new lacrosse team. These first chapter books dig a little deeper into the subject of sports, focusing on players' relationships with each other and themselves, exploring the why and not just the what of the game. Black-and-white illustrations are frequent, and while multiple paragraphs appear on each spread, the text is spaced just enough for newly independent chapter book readers. A glossary, discussion questions, writing prompts, and more information about each sport is appended. VERDICT Purchase where the Jake Maddox sports books are popular or collections where books about lesser-known sports like lacrosse need representation.
