\nBlurb<\/strong><\/p>\n

A girl.
\nA dream.
\nAn accident.
\nA dream shattered.<\/p>\n

Ten-year-old Kate Taylor dreams of being the star of her basketball team, Angels. When Kate\u2019s tooth is knocked out at one of the games, and her mother, who is also her coach, says she can\u2019t play until the tooth the dentist replants heals, Kate\u2019s dreams are in jeopardy. Add Emily, the new girl at school who claims she\u2019s the best, and Kate faces a challenge to prove that she is the star.<\/p>\n

Will Kate succeed? Or will Emily ruin Kate\u2019s plans?<\/p>\n

Short summary of Book:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ten-year-old Kate Taylor wants to be the star of her basketball team, Angels, but when her tooth is knocked out at one of the games, her goal is in jeopardy. Even though the dentist replants the tooth, her mother, who is also her coach, refuses to let Kate play unless she can come up with a way to protect the tooth.<\/p>\n

With the encouragement of her friends and teammates, Kate tries everything. She asks her sister, Zoe, how her boyfriend, Ray, protects his teeth when playing football. Zoe is clueless. Kate wears her friend Simon\u2019s catcher\u2019s mask to practice, but it\u2019s too big and blocks her view of the goal. Kate stuffs cotton balls in her mouth and thinks she\u2019s swallowed one. Nothing works.<\/p>\n

To add to Kate\u2019s problems, Emily, the new girl at River Bend Elementary, is great at basketball. Kate worries Emily will be the star of the team. On top of that, Simon, the school brain, as well as klutz, says he plans to join the Angels, even though boys are not allowed.<\/p>\n

In the final game of the season, Kate faces a decision that will not only decide who wins the game, but whether she\u2019s star of the team or not.<\/p>\n
