Rebound Caper

Rebound Caper is by Thomas J. Dygard. It is a basketball book, but it's not just all basketball, it has a good adventure story to it. I wouldn't categorize it as a sports book, or an adventure book, it's both. As a boy on the girl's basketball team, Gary thinks he is making history, but he is just making trouble. His plan has got the school board in a complete uproar, and the principle very mad. When both the boys and girls teams start to suffer, it is up to Gary to stop his caper. I thought Rebound Caper was a very good book to read. I liked how it kept sucking me in and how I wanted to see what was going to happen next. I think that if you like sports books that have a little bit of adventure to it, you should read Rebound Caper. If you just like to read about basketball I would not recommend this book.
