Customer Reviews

Rookie/Superstar!

Riley Judd is a super hockey player, but undisciplined and selfish! Tyler Watson is just glad to be on the team. He's definitely not the greatest player and he definitely doesn't play to his full potential. The coach teams them up to help the underpriveledged ADD kids and to help each other. One to look beyond himself and stop showboating and the other to begin to play up to his full potential. Riley and Tyler can't stand each other and that is an understatement! Through helping the kids and unraveling the mystery of the kool-aid tampering, they learn to care for others, do their best, and become really great friends. What a great book.
