Large Print Book
Patina / by Jason Reynolds.
"Patina, or Patty, runs like a flash and was chosen for the Defenders "Patty" Jones is the fastest girl on the Defenders, an elite middle school track team. She runs for many reasons — like to escape the taunts from the kids at her new school. She runs from the reason WHY she's not able to live with her "real" mom any more: her mom has The Sugar, and Patty is terrified that the disease that took her mom's legs will one day take her away forever. And so Patty's also running for her mom. But can you ever really run away from any of this? As the stress builds, it's building up a pretty bad attitude as well. But Coach won't tolerate that; no day, no way. And now he wants Patty to run relay... where you have to depend on other people? How's she going to do THAT?"--Page [4] of cover.
