Game Changer    By Tommy Greenwald It’s been all over the news - the dangers of football, but some people and kids think the risk is worth the reward. Yet as Teddy Youngblood lies in a coma, friends and family try to piece together what happened on the field that day that lead to Teddy being in such critical condition. This book almost reads like a novel in verse with its sparse language and multiple perspectives, text messages and website posts. I'll let you decide if you think it is one or not. Recommended for 7th grade and up.
