Taking Sides Taking it to Another Level
The book I read was Taking Sides, by Gary Soto. This book is one of my favorite books. I definitely recommend people from the age of 12 and up. This book is very descriptive and well written. This book contains a little Spanish, so when you read it might be hard for you to understand. When you read this book it makes you feel as you're there.
One of my favorite part from the book is when he gets to play his old school against his school that he is now in a basketball game. So if you want to find out who wins you must read this book and find out for your own! The main characters in this story are Lincoln, James, Tony, Monica, and Lincoln's Mom. This story takes place in Sycamore, California.
If you really enjoy basketball books I really recommend you to read this book. This book is one of the best books I've read, and if you also love Gary Soto's book's you'll love this one. Taking Sides is a book full of excitement and mysteries.
Summary of Taking Sides
Lincoln is in a jam when his basketball team at his new school--where the students are rich and mostly white--faces his old team from the barrio on the boards. How can he play his best against his friends? No matter who wins, it looks like it will be lose-lose for Lincoln.
