Crossover by Kwame Alexander
This story of twin basketball players, told in poems from
the point of view of Joshua Bell, details the events of a basketball season marked
by triumph and tragedy. Being the son of a former NBA recruit isn’t easy, but
for Josh and his twin Jordan, basketball is how they make sense of everything
going on around them. But now Jordan is distracted by a new girl, and Josh’s
parents are fighting more than usual about his father’s health. As the
basketball season progresses, Josh’s conflicts off the court spill into his
game, until a tragedy forces him to face his own fears.
