SUMMARY The book is about a 13 year old boy named Jake (only his mom can call him by his birth name, Jacob) who has to play football in the shadow of his older brother, Wyatt. He's the backup quarterback for his high school football team. But when his quarterback, Tim, gets injured, who's to step up for his place? That's right. Jake. To see how the game turns out, you have to read the book.
I think the authors purpose for writing this book was to teach a lesson. Because Jake had to learn that not everyone can be perfect at what they want to do.
