This book is about a boy who loves basketball. The author is
Paul Langan. His writing style is drama, but very interesting. The message this
book gives you is that you shouldn’t put anything above your education. The
main character Lionel, juggles basketball and his education.
Schooled is about a teenage boy Lionel who doesn’t know if
he would rather pursue in basketball or focus on high school like he promises
his mother & father. While Lionel’s going thru these decisions his friend
Jamar is trying to convince him to dropout. All these events happening and
Lionel can barely read and write, will he pursue his dream or get caught in a
nightmare?
I did like this book because it shows you how important your
education is. Although the characters change from time to time I do recommend
this book. Lionel is a dynamic character because at first he wants to make his
mother happy. Although he begins to feed into what Jamar says Lionel makes the
right decision. The good thing about this book is that it will have you wanting
to know what will happen next.
