2nd Place is a story of hope and encouragement that speaks to the
human spirit. The story is told from the perspective of a young boy
named Ricky Workman. The reader gets to watch him grow up, notice
his writing improve in his journal, and see him develop into a hard
working, loving, and people building man. We also get to see him
succeed and fail as a football player and track athlete. There are
no obvious antagonists in this story, but Rick still has his share
of conflict and struggle. Life experiences challenge him greatly,
but he remains true to the principles his parents and grandparents
teach him. This book was written in response to a need the author
has detected in the youth of today. Our global culture seems so
pre-occupied with finishing first that too many individuals simply
give up on worthwhile pursuits if there is any doubt in their minds
they will be the best. This story is an uplifting, yet real world
example of how someone can still feel valued even though they don't
win it all. Every school library needs high interest, low to medium
vocabulary books that arouse the interest of young people. 2nd
Place delivers beautifully in that regard.
