INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Green, Tim

Force Out

(3) 4-6 Best friends forever, Joey and Zach both aspire to be on the same select baseball team--but there's only one spot, and one of them will be eliminated. Green treats this dicey situation with respect and laces the plot with sports action, some solid coaching advice, and the added spice of a first love interest for the two sixth graders. The story isn't deep, but it is solid.
