The Crossover by Kwame Alexander

The language of this book is truly rhythmic and melodic, like a skilled basketball player on the court. The author's talent with choosing just the right words that ring true is evident in this story of twin brothers, Josh and Jordan, who are basketball stars. The story is written in verse, which appeals to many readers. This story is about family, brotherhood, relationships, and of course...basketball. I recommend this to readers who like sports/basketball, books in verse, and stories about family relationships.
