I read the book Crash by Jerry Spinelli. It is about a 7th grade boy named Crash who is a great football player! one game he does something unremarkable on the football that the school has never seen I loved this part. He also does very dumb outside the football field to his week vegetarian neighbor, he bullies him. I was really sad when this happened! Crashes funny grandpa named Scooter moves in with them and the whole family loves him because of his jokes, smile, stories, company, and cooking. Something in the book really sad happens to Scooter I was scared when this tragedy happened.
In my opinion no book compares to this book or author except Time Green Football Genius because they are both about 7th grade football players who love the game. The age recommendation for this book is 12+. It was a Newberry Honor Winner. It was published in 1997. Publishers weekly said “Spinelli packs moral wallop, leaving it to the pitch-perfect narration to drive home his point.” There weren’t any quotes from other authors or in the book. So if you need 162 page amazing sports book the then Crash by Jerry Spinelli is the way to go!
