Told from the perspective of a fifth-grade student, Rip, it concerns his experiences both on the basketball court and in a Language Arts classroom with new coach-and-teacher Mr. Acevedo. Rip's best friend, Red, is on the autism spectrum, which is the reason why I first picked up this book. (Being autistic myself, I purposely seek out books that address my own experience.) Some of the potentially most enjoyable touches for my youthful customers, are the gross-out possibilities of a classroom assignment. Rip teams with a classmate, Avery Goodman, who relies for mobility on a wheelchair, and they give a "Nasty Nine" presentation on all the disgusting things that Avery has to roll her tires through. At one point, Rip's mother suggests to Rip that he "brings out the best" in Red, and suggests to him that, that is why Mr. Acevedo paired him to work with Avery. I appreciate that Rip, himself, holds a more reciprocal view of his relationships. He and Red "get" each other, and bring out each other's best, and when Rip works with Avery, it seems clear in the story that both bring unique talents and abilities to their class presentation. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
