INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Lupica, Mike

Hot Hand

(3) 4-6 Comeback Kids series. In Hand, ten-year-old Billy struggles with his parents' separation, a situation complicated by his dad also being his basketball coach. In Drill, sixth-graders Scott "the brain" and Chris "the quarterback" work to make each other "better at football and...better at school." Lupica's underdogs courageously face life's challenges--bullies, divorce, dyslexia--with each book culminating in a dramatic game-winning victory. Review covers these Comeback Kids titles: Hot Hand and Two-Minute Drill.
