Two-Minute Drill: A Comeback Kids Novel
by Mike Lupica
Nobody believes it when Scott Parry, the clumsiest and brainiest kid in school, joins the football team. But that’s just what he did. Only star quarterback Chris Conlan knows Scott’s secret talent. But Chris has a secret of his own – and he will be off the team if it comes out. Can these two unlikely friends prove that the will to succeed is even more important than raw talent?
Watch Mike Lupica discuss The Comeback Kids Novels on The Today Show.
