As they navigate this unexpected twist, they must decide how to protect the spirit of their community. What will they learn about trust and friendship in the process?

From the publisher

The Bicycle Man lends bikes to the neighborhood kids for free, and Lawrence and Brady ride them all summer long. But when a new kid takes advantage of the Bicycle Man, Lawrence and Brady discover that there’s one thing that the Man likes more than bikes: kids. “An inspiring story.”–Kirkus Reviews
