The Swag Is in the Socks by Kelly J. Baptist

5.0

This story is about a teenager named Xavier who lives with an extended family by the name of Aunt Kat. Xav also lives with his older Shannon and great uncle Frankie. Their parents are in jail. Xav needs help in being confident and Uncle Frankie helps him out with some letters and socks. I really enjoyed this middle grade novel. The characters were realistic, funny, and serious. I could relate to this story in many ways. I recommend this book to all middle graders. I give this book 5 stars.
