What would you be willing to do for a friend? How much would a real friend ask of you? Barry and Alby have been friends since elementary school. Alby has it all, but it is Barry who ends up teaching him the important life lesson when Alby’s gambling gets him into deep trouble. Barry’s mom works long hours, and he would love to be able to help her. Saldaña’s latest book is a quick, easy, read for teens, and a wonderfully warm story about honor, friendship, honest--and what it means to be a man.
