Squirt's Touchdown (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798891126978)

Squirt is a fourteen-year-old football dynamo from the Rochdale neighborhood in Queens, New York.

Squirt has it all--speed, vision, and an arm. Talented beyond measure, there's nothing sweeter for him than the thrill of taking down an opponent and making the touchdown.

Tension between Squirt and his younger brother, Omar, the "illest lyricist," begin brewing over Squirt's dream girl. Life for young Squirt feels like something far from a victory. As Squirt tries to dodge the "tackles of life," Squirt begins to question, "Is winning everything?"

"Dimes every time... the game is on the line."

"I'm lightning fast,

zipping and zapping,

Why you falling like that?

My bad, I'm just trying to pass."
