Alley Oops by Janice Levy Review

Reviewed by Kaya (Age 10)

Alley Oops is about a boy called JJ who is asked by his dad to make friends with the new boy at school Patrick Montgomery. JJ doesn’t want to as Patrick is really fat and sweats a lot! After talking it turns out that JJ and Patrick like to play pranks and have both got into trouble at school for throwing pizza. Patrick tells JJ that his uncle Muscles Max is an arm wrestler and that he takes Patrick to the matches, Patrick has his own arm wrestling move called the Alley Oops and JJ becomes his manager and calls Patrick Hammer Hand Man and they both end up being really good friends.

I like this book as it shows that everyone doesn’t have to look or be the same to be good friends. The pictures made this book really fun to read.

Rating: 5/5
