Plot-Resolution Richie. Danny’s father decided to build a travel team for all the children who got cut from the travel team Danny was on, he joins the new travel team that kept him as a player, a team that didn’t care about height.

Opinion My opinion of this book is that it was great, since I like sports books but it really was great because it contained some descriptive and well organized sentences, it also had some parts where I got confused but overall it was a good…I would recommend it.
