Rebound The Crossover Series edition by Kwame Alexander Children eBooks Reviews
- I didn’t think this was possible, but I love this even more than The Crossover. This prequel is expertly written as it makes you forget what you know is coming, but is also so very satisfying as it puts some bows on some answers.
The writing is phenomenal, but the characters are even better. I love every, single one..yes, Charlie/Chuck, mom, CJ are all amazing, but the grandparents stole the show for me. Granddad is sassy and sweet and tender and tough.
You’ll love it. - My 13 year old use to be an avid reader until a couple of years ago when he discover the phone and video games. I got him this book to try to get him back into reading. I thought he woukd connect with the characters, and he certainly did!
The author has really done a wonderful job of finding a way to reach young teen men, specially, young people, in general. That push n pull of family ties and budding love is balanced by the underlying coming of age story line. I was really impressed by the book and my son, couldn't wait to see if there were more books in the series. - I bought this book for my 8 year old nefew that enjoys reading, however, I’m so glad I looked inside this book when I received it prior to gifting it. It is a collection of poems that don’t make a lot of sense or age appropriate for an 8 year old. I ordered bc of the great reviews but i don’t agree with them.
- My son loved this book. He has to read several fiction books of his choice for summer and this was one of the ones he chose. He read it in 30 minute increments for a week and he would talk to me about the book all the time.
- Great series! Loved all three books. I am a recently retired tracing teacher. I highly recommended these books for students who are reluctant to read. Good for the kids who like poetry and sports. They are quick reads also! I can’t wait to see and read what new book for middle schoolers Kwame Alexander writes next!
- My kids (now 17,15 and 12) loved the Crossover so I had to buy this book. So far, one of my kids has read it and she liked it as much as the first one. If you have kids that really don't enjoy reading, they should enjoy these books, especially if they play basketball.
- I love Kwame Alexander’s writing style. Excellent book from a gifted author!! Bought this (as well as Booked and The Crossover) for my 13 year old son, but I enjoyed them just as much as he did!
- I like this book.
