On Track

Author(s): Kathryn Apel

Middle School (Ages 11-14)

Everyone says you couldn't get two brothers more different than Shaun and Toby. Toby struggles at school, has a stumbly, fumbly, bumbly body and thinks that Sports Day is the worst day of the year. No matter how hard he tries, he's not good at anything ...except running away from his 'big, better brother'. Shaun is top of his class and does everything first, better, best! He can't wait for Sports Day - D-Day for discus. But when his 'joke of a brother' is around, nobody notices the things Shaun can do. Will Toby and Shaun get on track before Sports Day? 'A sensitive and gently humorous portrayal of dealing with difference. The family relationships, and the complicated tangle of sibling rivalry and love, all ring with truth.' Wendy Orr, author of Nim's Island
