Each Friday I share the first chapter of a book perfect for middle school readers. Today's title is THE TRYOUT! This graphic novel all about middle school cheerleader tryouts (and more!) is written by Newbery Honor Award winning (twice!) author, Christina Soontornvat and illustrated by artist Joanna Cacao. • Book Blurb: STAND TALL. BE LOUD. GAME FACE ON. When cheerleading tryouts are announced, Christina and her best friend, Megan, literally jump at the chance to join the squad. As two of the only kids of color in the school, they have always yearned to fit in―and the middle school cheerleaders are popular and accepted by everyone. But will the girls survive the terrifying tryouts, with their whole grade watching? And will their friendship withstand the pressures of competition? • Hilarious and highly relatable, The Tryout by two-time Newbery Honoree Christina Soontornvat and shining new talent Joanna Cacao will make you laugh, cry, and cheer! This pitch perfect graphic memoir about courage and competition, friendship and belonging is perfect for fans of Smile, New Kid, Rollergirl, and Real Friends. • Want to increase student engagement?
