Miracle on 49th Street by Mike Lupica
This is an amazing book! There is this girl who has no father and her mother just recently past away. So she is living in the house of a friend of her mom's who has a daughter named Kim. Since her mother died she has been trying to find out who her father was. When she goes to Boston she meets the best basketball player on the Celtics. He tells her that he was the man dating her mother when she died. Be but he sends security when she tries to convince him that he is her father. Join her on her journey through Boston and New York to convince a basketball player that he is her dad. I rate this book a ten because of the great description and the fun, lucky, and unlucky journey through two winter cities.

I read this book and I loved it. I wonder why her "father" (the basketball player), wouldn't admit that he was her father. Maybe he wasn't happy with his "daughter", so he did not want to be known as her father, but i don't see why he would not like her. Or maybe it has something with his basketball. He probably thought that having a daughter would interfere with his career.
ReplyDeleteYeah, in the book it gave little hints about her "father" being a little focused on only basketball. I can't belive he doesn't even want to start a famiy.
