What's This Book About
Publisher Summary
When Rusty Young is diagnosed with diabetes, his parents want him to stop playing basketball. But that doesn’t fit in with Rusty’s plans – and when he learns that his friends have formed a summer league team coached by an energetic newcomer, he’s determined to persuade his parents to let him join. However, that is only one obstacle he must overcome before he can wear the Cannerville Lakers’ uniform.
