Description

Fifth grade is one crazy ride in this middle grade novel about two best friends.

Rip and Red are best friends whose fifth-grade year is nothing like what they expected. They’ve a crazy new tattooed teacher named Mr. Acevedo, who doesn’t consider in tests or homework and who likes off-the-wall projects, the more “off” the better. And guess who’s also their new basketball coach? Mr. Acevedo! Easy-going Rip is knocked completely out of his comfort zone. And for Red, who has autism and truly needs things to be exactly a certain way, the changes are even more of a struggle. But together these two make a great duo who understand how to lend a hand every other―and find how one can make a difference―in the school room and at the court.

With its lively and authentic story and artwork, A Whole New Ballgame by Phil Bildner is a fresh, fun book about school, sports, and friendship.

“Cartoony illustrations lend energy and personality to the likable cast of characters. A school story with heart.” ―Kirkus Reviews
