Bobby the Brave by Lisa Yee
4.0
It's not easy having a former pro football player for a father, at least not if you're Bobby Ellis-Chan. Bobby's good at lots of things - skateboarding, being a dog in the school musical, making friends - but football is not one of them! Bobby's already worried that he's not living up to his dad's expectations, but when Bobby gets off on the wrong foot with the new PE teacher things get worse. Mr. Rainerhaus, a big fan of Bobby's dad, announces that they're going to play football in gym. Bobby's toast! Or is he?
I'm happy to report that the second installment of Bobby Ellis-Chan's adventures lives up to the first. Bobby's predicaments are relatable and illustrations by Dan Santat add to the humor in the story. Hand this one to fans of Andrew Clements and other school stories. Here's hoping there are lots more Bobby books to come!
