Description

After Tyler sprains his ankle, he does not want to participate in the spirit activities at school.

Quick Summary

Tyler sprains his ankle at school and feels too discouraged to join his classmates for spirit activities, but he discovers ways to still be part of the team despite his injury. The story explores friendship struggles, dealing with disappointment, and learning that you can support others even when you cannot participate physically. If your kid likes "Junie B. Jones and the Stupid Smelly Bus" or other early chapter books about school mishaps and navigating social situations, they will connect with Tyler's experience. This is ideal for kindergarten through third graders reading at approximately a third-grade level who enjoy short chapter books about sports and school life.
