Description

Philip doesn't like gym class any more than the four introverted kids he's teamed with to play basketball. They're knocked around, physically and verbally, by jocks and cool kids and bad kids, but these five sophomores discover they have much in common. Through the fall, winter, into spring, play-off time, they become fast friends, watch classic war movies during sleepovers, and learn to play basketball. Philip is terribly bashful, still has a crush on Sarah, a starter on the varsity team. They were friends in elementary school. She teaches Philip the art of jump shots. Delvin Lincoln is the tallest boy at Eisenhower High, but also the most uncoordinated. Danny Nguyen develops a soaring shot that seldom misses. Jim Wetzel is a sweet kid with a sense of humor that helps him deal with bad acne and divorcing parents. Girls think Carlos Goya is a little cutie; he learns to dribble the ball around like a lightning bug. He's the only one with his license, but he drives so timidly. Much more than a novel about basketball, "Philip's Team" is a funny and touching look at the trials of high school life. It's about defeating bullies, overcoming shyness, and rising to greatness. It's about the strength that can come from meaningful friendships. It's about learning that life can be awesome.
