Edenville Owls by Robert B. Parker is his first book for teen readers about a kid who shows remarkable leadership, compassion, and courage. He leads his 8th grade basketball team to the state championship game without a coach and only five boys called the Edenville Owls. He figured out how to help his nice English teacher out of a really bad situation and enjoyed a friendship with Joanie, a girl who was his best friend.
This is a quick-read, a good story with a kid who faced the question of how many bad things should he do in order to do a very good thing. It shows that working together with friends can accomplish great things. I think boys would like this one.
