My top 5 are as follows:
The Stain on the Wall by IP Standing
Behind the Pyramids by Mustafa Crap
Over the Cliff by Willie Comeback
The Baby’s Revenge by Nora Titoff
The Cat’s Revenge by Claude Balls [/b]
How old are these!? I remeber these from back in highschool… :rolleyes:
I highly highly reccommend the book Blind Your Ponies by Stanley Gordon West. It is about a Class C Montana high school (Willow Creek, Montana-A real town) that is struggling to stay in existance. The town’s basketball team has lost 90-some games in a row, because they don’t have enough kids to have substitutes. Then a talented basketball player from Minnesota and a 6’11" Norweigen exchange student (who has never played basketball) move and join the team in Willow Creek. The book is fantastic and I have yet to hear anyone say a bad word about it. The book leaves you almost in tears at how heroic the 6 boys on that basketball team are. It is a fictional book loosely based on the Willow Creek basketball team of 1991.
