(4) 4-6 Sixth grader Cory, a promising running back from a rough Irish neighborhood, receives his injured best friend's football scholarship to a private school. When he is a suspect in a break-in, Cory is determined to be more than a kid from the wrong side of the tracks. Despite the predictable plot, the brisk pace and lively descriptions of game play will drawn in readers.
