Summary: Danger Zone
Review: The novel, Danger Zone, by David Klass, is a story about a high school basketball player named Jimmy Doyle. During this novel, Jimmy has to learn how to fight against racism and hate. There were several things that I liked about this novel. The first thing that interested me was that Jimmy Doyle played basketball. Jimmy describes one of his games when he says, " Time after time when I was double- and triple- teamed I fed the ball to an open team-mate, but for the most part they missed wide-open shots" (Pg. 2). The second thing that I liked about the book was how he had to choose between playing basketball and be accepted by other white people. The second this that I liked about the book was how Jimmy had to choose between playing basketball and be accepted by other white people. The third thing I liked about the novel was how the author had a lot of different settings. The reason I liked that was because it made the book so much more interesting. The theme in Danger Zone is about how much hate and how there is racism. Do I agree to this, yes because when Jimmy's team goes to different country's people in the stands kept booing at the color people on the team. The way this relates to me and my life is that people call other people ADD and LD. The way the author is trying to say about racism is that white people didn't like black people and when the Jimmy's team came to Italy the people didn't like it because there were black people on it. I would recommend Danger Zone to high schoolboys because I think they would be most interested in this book. The reason is that this book deals with a lot of things that boys have to go through in basketball and other people.

Summary: A great intreaging novel
Review: The novel, Danger Zone, was intreaging and creative mystery. I liked this book because it started out with a bang and the action never seized. I think the best part was when Jimmy came out of the locker room at half time and came back to win the game. I also liked the ending, it was great the way the author arranged Jimmy and Angus to become friends. Danger Zone would be a good book for people to read that like basketball, it isn't just a sports book though it has a great story line. It also has a very exciting terrorist act, which keeps you reading to find out what the terrorist is going to do.

Summary: Small town Hero, Big Lessons learned
Review: This book is about a small town hero named Jimmy Doyle, when the time is right, can do amazing things with a basketball. This is why he is selected to play for an American High School Dream Team. He will get the chance to travel around Europe. There is just one problem. In the town that he grew up in, there wasn't a lot of racial balance. He had only see a few African Americans in his lifetime, so coming to Los Angeles was a big step for him. He had to deal with his teammates who were predominately black. He has to deal with prejudices people thinking he is only there because he is white. He has some rough times with an LA native standout Augustus LeMay. Through out the book I think it is very interesting and wise that Jimmy tries to learn from Augustus. I think if more people try what Jimmy did, we wouldn't have half the problems we have in society today. Jimmy also get his first confrontation with racism when they travel to Germany and encounter some Skin Heads. This is probably a very tough experience for Jimmy because he has never been in this situation. I think people can learn a lot about this book, it teaches very good lessons. You learn some about the lifestyles people have growing up in large cities. Overall I believe this is probably one of the best books that I have read. I have now read it multiple times and recommend it to all of my friends.

Summary: A Captivating and Interesting Novel
Review: This novel by David Klass tells the story of sixteen year old Jimmy Doyle and his journey from a small town in Minnesota to an American Dream Team basketball competition in Italy. At first, Jimmy doesn't want to leave his girlfriend Janey and his widowed mother and two younger sisters when basketball scouts recruit him. At his mother's urging, he flies to Los Angles for the team's training. He discovers that all the other members of the team are black and are some of the most well-known high school basketball players in America. The white boy from Minnesota doesn't quit fit in, but begins to learn about the lives of his black teammates. He develops an especially difficult relationship with Augustus, a tough dude from inner city Los Angeles.
When the Dream Team arrives in Italy, it faces neo-Nazi racism against the predominantly black players. Death threats provide a suspenseful plot as the American team accumulates victories on the court. The climax of the book teaches Jimmy that racism can hurt anyone.
I recommend this fast-paced book to any sports minded teenager who wants to see how people from different backgrounds can become friends and brothers under the skin. The conversation between the teenagers is realistic. Their lives are complicated. Jimmy takes risks in this book and learns that
having guts in dangerous zones can bring not just glory but also a deeper understanding of life.
