What's Basketball Blues About
A girl tries to choose between fitting in and playing the game she loves in Basketball Blues by Thalia Kalkipsakis, the eleventh book of the Go Girl! chapter book series. When Angie is told that she plays basketball like a boy, she is heartbroken. She quits her favorite basketball team and dreams of cheerleading instead. Angie just wants to fit in, but is that worth giving up her true self? Praise for the Go Girls! series: The characters are likable and believable–people you hope your own girls might take as friends. –Fort Worth Star-Telegram Simple in language and story structure, making them accessible to young readers who are making their first foray into chapter books and good choices for reluctant readers. –School Library Journal
