| Publisher Description: The four sixth graders on their paraplegic teacher's enormously successful Academic Bowl squad are more than just teammates brought together by chance. They call themselves "The Souls". Their individual life stories unfold in four jewel-like short stories that are woven together into a novel that is "glowing with humor and dusted with magic...a stunning quartet of harmoniously blended voices". -- Publishers Weekly, starred review |
