Table of ContentsReviewsThis is a great summer story... --Lizanne Eastwood Canadian Review of Materials What could be more exciting than to be a part of a basketball camp with a bunch of other boys who love the same sport? This is a bright spot too, since Jay, and his family, is forced to live with his grandfather since his family lost their house in a fire. Jay is all excited to be part of the Acadia University Basketball camp in Nova Scotia. He gets to stay in an actual college dorm and be away from home for a whole week. What makes it even better is the fact that his best friend Mike is going to the same camp.<br><br>What starts out as probably the most thrilling thing that has ever happened in Jay's life, takes a horrible turn. Mike's older brother, Chad, who is supposed to be the boy's coach and mentor, is not at all what a mentor should be. It will take some work on the part of the boys to make it through a tough week. <br><br>Sometimes appearances can be deceiving. Chad used to seem like such a great guy. It takes the boys to make a difference in Chad's life.<br><br> Personal Best is an exciting continuation of the story which was first introduced in Sylvia Gunnery's book Out of Bounds . I am anxiously waiting to see if Ms. Gunnery decides to continue Jay's story in another book.--Brianne Platch Midwest Book Review Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
