Have you ever felt crushed by the weight of expectations? Your parents, your coaches, and worst of all, yourself? Luke David is a crazy athletic and a crazy smart Mormon who struggles with also being crazy judgmental of himself and others. Tennis Shoes and Toe Clips tells the story of the relationship between Luke and a variety of his coaches and fellow students who do not quite make the cut in his black-and-white view of the world.Written by two middle school teachers with years of first-hand knowledge of the disturbed inner-workings of the young adult mind, this novel is designed specifically for the sports-loving young adult, but it is sure to find a much broader audience because at its heart it is about acceptance, tolerance and compassion. The host of embedded interesting facts and broad use of multimedia makes this a genre-busting novel.
