Making the Team by Derrick Moore and Stephanie Perry Moore

Making The Team is a great young adult novel about a young man who learns several lessons through his family relationships. Not yet a man, young Alec London must deal and learn to adapt when things are different and change comes about. As time passes and he opens his heart, Alec learns that through his trials he is surrounded by love all along. It is that love that helps him overcome situations at school and with his brother.


Making The Team is the first book that I have read by this husband and wife literary duo. Derrick and Stephanie Moore penned a great young adult novel about family dynamics, overcoming trials, and God's love through the eyes of a fourth grader who seems to be wise beyond his years. This may be the first book that I have read, but it will not be the last. I rate this novel 4.5 Chocolate Stars according to my rating system. I would highly recommend this book.
