(4) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Troy White (Football Genius) continues to help the Atlanta Falcons by using his unique talent for "predicting football plays...like a supercomputer." A disgruntled reporter exposes Troy's secret, jeopardizing the team's playoff chances. Fast-paced chapters propel the story as Troy works to untangle the lies twisted in the media storm (though his own actions, left unexamined, aren't entirely aboveboard).
Reviewer: Carrie Harasimowicz Sullivan
