The Crossover by Kwame Alexander
4.0

Written as a poem, this is the story of a boy and his twin brother who are obsessed about (and very skilled in) basketball. Their father was a former NBA player, so he's full of advice but the relationship full of warmth and good-natured teasing. Conflicts include the father's heart problems, the twin's new girlfriend, and whether or not the team will win the championship. Fresh original voice and format.
