 Meet Peter Friedman, high school freshman. Talented photographer. Former baseball star. When a freak injury ends his pitching career, Peter has some major things to figure out. Is there life after sports? Why has his grandfather suddenly given him thousands of dollars worth of camera equipment? And is it his imagination, or is the super-hot star of the girls' swim team flirting with him, right in front of the amazing new girl in his photography class?  (South Carolina Junior Book Award nominee 2015,  Prepared by: Lorena Swetnam, Blythewood Middle School, lswetnam@richland2.org)
