Caught Up — Earl Sewell

“A straight-no-chaser coming of age tale.”
--Tracy Price Thompson


In the 80s, acceptance and popularity meant everything…

Theron's world gets turned upside down when his family moves from the inner city to the suburbs. What is supposed to be a change for the better becomes his worst nightmare. His new neighborhood is populated by spoiled rich kids who don't like outsiders.

Then Theron meets Millhouse, a social reject who befriends him, but their camaraderie does not come without sacrifice.

Just when Theron thinks he'll never be cool with the popular kids, he discovers that he's a gifted athlete with star power, and is willing to do whatever it takes, to bring a champion ship trophy to his school. But acceptance and popularity may cost him more than he bargained for.
