Buh-buh-buh-buh-buh #BookFace!

Gimme gimme gimme gimme the ball, because I’m gonna, dunk it! This week’s #BookFaceFriday was the perfect choice for March Madness. “Rebound” by Kwame Alexander (‎Clarion Books, 2021), is the prequel to Alexander’s Newbery Award–winning novel The Crossover. You can find it as an eBook on Nebraska OverDrive Libraries. Kwame Alexander is a New York Times bestselling author and along with the Newbery Award has also received the Coretta Scott King Award. You can find the entire Crossover series in the Nebraska OverDrive collection, along with six other titles by Kwame Alexander.

As in his previous novels in verse, Alexander shows off his expert command of the format, employing staccato breaks with smooth rhymes that mimic the bounce and flow of the sport.”
