The Hoopster by Alan Sitomer

4.0

The Hoopster is a simple story, but it will definitely appeal to teens because it begins with "street cred" from the beginning. It has a good message, but I thought the pace of the story was all off. It had some good, gradual development at the beginning, but skipped over major plot points from the middle to the end. I currently have a reluctant reader using my copy, and he's not willing to give it up so others can read it, so that's high praise... but I wouldn't recommend it to any of my adult friends.
