The Crossover by Kwame Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this amazing novel-in-verse about family, basketball, and twins in one sitting. With words that mirror a basketball bouncing, the reader meets the two Bell brothers who are awesome basketball players supported by a Dad who was once a famous basketball player and a mom who happens to be the principal at their school. The reader is treated to an urban delight of words describing one season, in both basketball and their lives. A book for boys and girls alike and the reluctant reader, highly recommended!
