Friendship, practice, and a skate-off

EllRay’s concern that Kevin is drifting toward another classmate gives this story its central tension: can learning to skateboard help him reconnect with his friend? With help from an older neighbor, EllRay sets out to master tricks including ollies and kickflips before a boys-only third-grade skate-off. The book brings together school friendships, the effort of learning a new skill, and a skateboarding competition, with EllRay’s goal tied as much to friendship as to the event itself.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children interested in skateboarding and learning skateboard tricks.
  • Young readers who enjoy stories about school friendships and competition.
  • Readers looking for a fiction story centered on a third-grade character.

Book overview

Can EllRay master the moves in time to win his friend back?

EllRay Jakes may be the shortest kid in his class, and he may get into trouble from time to time, but he can always count on his best friends Kevin and Corey. But lately, Kevin has been skateboarding with the meanest boy in class. Could EllRay be losing one of his friends?

Not giving up without a fight, EllRay asks his older neighbor to show him a few jaw-dropping skateboard moves--like ollies and kickflips. EllRay must learn as many tricks as he can before the secret boys-only third grade skate-off. But will it be enough?
