Coy, John. Crackback. Scholastic, 2005 [0-439-69733-6]
Miles is excited about his Junior year in HS and his time on the football
team.  So is his father who was a football star in his High School.  It
seems that this story will be a rah rah football story with a father's
loving support.  Well, Miles' father is less than loving.  In fact he is
verbally abusive and picks on everything Miles does on the field.
Everything really changes when Miles beloved coach has to resign for medical
reasons.  Miles doesn't like the new coach and the new coach does not like
him.  For the first time in his life, Miles is no longer a starter on the
team.  This 201 page book is not your usual sports story, well worth reading
and adding to your collection.
