Man Up! - Paperback

by Shelia E. Bell (Editor), Levi Frazier Jr (Author)

Two senior all-American high school basketball players create a situation that both have to man up on in order to win at the game of basketball and in the game of life. Unfortunately, both have to man up despite the emptiness in their hearts as a result of a parent who walked out early in their lives. The result: unresolved issues that most often derail the most disciplined youth, causing many to walk off the court and into the court system for much of their lives. Brought together merely by chance, these two identical yet unrelated look-a-likes end up trading places their senior year to play a joke on the world like the cruel joke they feel the world has played on them. In their journey, they soon come to witness the hurt others go through in a world that is not just unfair to the two of them, but to all, and though there are referees in life, even they make bad calls from time to time. Nevertheless if they plan to succeed, they still have to Man Up!
