 | Whale Talk by Chris Crutcher, Roger Bart
A gifted athlete who's twice qualified as a swimmer in the Junior Olympics, disenfranchised high school senior T.J. Jones (the only student of color in his school) has always shunned school athletics. It is only after his favorite teacher, Mr. Simet, begs him to help form a swim team for the school (thus helping save Mr. Simet's job), that T.J. becomes a high school athlete. Given the right to assemble his own team, T.J. recruits only fellow outcasts and winds up with a representative from each extreme of the educational spectrum, a muscle man, a giant, a chameleon, and a one-legged psychopath. Named one of the Best Children's Books 2001 by Publishers Weekly. AUTHOR: Chris Crutcher, Roger Bart
