(Deuker, 72) ]]> 2017-10-27 17:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201305905 far09670 https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201305983 The Quote is important to the book because the two main characters (Mitch and Kimi) are the school reporters and work for the school newspaper. They need a story because they work for the sports section so they decide to do it on football and see this one strange football player. His name was Angel and he was very mysterious and kept to himself. In the book at this part they were coming to a conclusion that Angel was an undercover drug cop. Kimi and Mitch though this because Angel looked old, looked liked he was wired twenty-four/seven, and why his friend would have a gun. Coach McNulty, the head football coach, didn't want Kimi and Mitch to do an interview or even talk to Angel and they wanted to know why. ]]> 2017-10-27 17:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201305983 far09670 https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306127 2017-10-27 17:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306127 far09670 https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306201 This book symbolized a corn maze to me. There were many different ways that Mitch and Kimi tried to get information on Angel but every time they thought they were gonna find out who he is, they get more information about Angel and change his mind. Coach McNulty kept making Kimi and Mitch curious to find more even though they didn't want them finding out. ]]> 2017-10-27 17:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306201 far09670 https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306463 I agree with the book review. Coach McNulty was hiding this student from everybody else . Though the student always did amazing at practice he was never on the field even when he was very tall and strong. This brought Mitch to want to find more out about this football player because he could help there defense when their losing in muscle. Mitch goes far back into Angel ( The student) past and it causes trouble for everybody. McNulty knew something about Angel that nobody else knew that made Kimi and Mitch want to find out so much more about him until they knew the truth. ]]> 2017-10-27 17:51:02 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306463 far09670 https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201306598 /* Starred Review */ Grades 7-10 Deuker (Gym Candy, 2003) really cranks up the suspense in his newest pageturner, combining a Seattle high-school football team’s march toward the state championship game with a school reporter’s investigation of an apparent ringer that the coach has slipped in to bolster the defense. Mitch doesn’t think much of his new assignment as sports reporter, but when he sees how Coach McNulty keeps Angel—a reclusive new student who shows star-quality abilities in practice—benched until late in each hard-fought game his suspicions are aroused. Thrilled to think that he has caught wind of an actual cheating scandal, Mitch digs into Angel’s past. What he discovers stirs up far more trouble than he has bargained for, and pitches him into a series of terrifying situations. The game action alone is riveting even for readers who don’t know a naked bootleg from a hook-and-ladder play, but Deuker enriches the tale with several well-tuned subplots and a memorable narrator/protagonist who turns a corner on his own self-image while weathering brutal tests of his courage and determination. Definitely one for the top shelf. -- Peters, John (Reviewed 09-01-2010) (Booklist, vol 107, number 1 , p119)

Its a first person point of view from Mitch True and he talks about everybody else and how he feels and sees them in the story instead of the book being in third person. If the book was in third person it would change the whole book because it would get different perspectives from all of the different characters sides. ]]> 2017-10-27 18:40:53 UTC https://padlet.com/far09670/3noa1p78abho/wish/201327906
