Free Throw
by Jacqueline Guest
Matthew Eagletail was happy with life until his mother remarried. Now he must get used to a new school, a new father, five pesky new sisters, and a dog named Precious.
Matthew Eagletail is the star player for the Warriors, his basketball team on the Tsuu T'ina First Nation near Calgary.
When his mother remarries, everything in Matthew's life is suddenly different and new: a new school, a new father, five pesky new sisters, a new dog named Precious. Worst of all, he has to quit the Warriors. When he's asked to join his new school's team, the Bandits, he claims he'll never play for the competition. His sister Jazz thinks otherwise, and sets out to prove it.
Free Throw is the story of how one young man come to terms with change and returns to the court--with a little help from his friends.
