Prejudice can be defined in many ways as Ray finds out when he crosses the line as a white Polish-American boy who wants to play on his high school's black basketball team. VOYA Every student in the town of Franklin knows and follows an unwritten rule-if you are a black athlete you play basketball, and if you are a white athlete you wrestle-everyone except Raymond Wisniewski. Ray, who is Polish, has no interest in wrestling and is a good basketball player but has never made his high school team. When Ray finally realizes his dream and makes the team, his problems begin. He encounters constant conflict as he challenges the status quo at his high school. Ray struggles to juggle his friends who are white and his new teammates who are predominately black. Neither group believes that Ray should be playing basketball. Ray tries to fit in to both of these worlds, but he is caught in the middle as his best friend, Walter, pushes for a violent confrontation between the two groups. This novel tackles many familiar teen issues-friendship, fitting in, dating, self-worth, and authority-but issues of peer pressure, prejudice, and race dominate. The characters' views and conversations on race will make for a spirited discussion among teen readers. While confronting racial stereotypes, some YA novel stereotypes still exist-a pretty girl who is not pretty on the inside, a tough coach who always does and says the perfect thing, and a best friend who is not supportive. Readers will respond to honest dialogue about prejudices, however, and will appreciate the quality basketball action peppered throughout Krech's thought-provoking first novel.
