A gripping story about the impact of sports culture on young athletes.
When high school football star Teddy Youngblood suffers a devastating injury that leaves him in a coma, the entire community is shaken. What begins as a tragic accident quickly unravels into a deeper mystery, as friends, teammates, and family members struggle to piece together what really happened on the field. Through a fast-paced narrative that includes texts, interviews, and social media posts, Game Changer reveals the hidden pressures and emotional toll of competitive sports on young athletes. Tommy Greenwald's timely and emotionally resonant story explores the culture of silence and loyalty that often surrounds high school athletics, raising questions about safety, accountability, and the cost of winning. Game Changer is a powerful exploration of identity, peer pressure, and the complexities of growing up in a world where performance is everything. It's a compelling read that sparks conversation and encourages empathy. This book is ideal for fans of realistic fiction, sports drama, and socially conscious storytelling. With its unique format and urgent themes, Game Changer stands out as a thought-provoking and unforgettable novel that challenges readers to rethink what it means to be a team player. "A must-buy for libraries looking for innovative narratives for sports fans. Readers who enjoy Tim Green, Mike Lupica, and Kwame Alexander will want to pick this up." --School Library JournalLes informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
