THE FIFTH QUARTER: HARD COURT signing at Barnes & Noble, Eatontown
Saturday July 23rd, 1-3PM at The Monmouth Mall
This coming Saturday, July 23rd, I will be at the Eatontown Barnes & Noble at The Monmouth Mall, signing copies of the brand new book in my middle-grade series, The Fifth Quarter: Hard Court. Pick up a copy and receive a one-of-a-kind bookplate with an original sketch of Lori Block, personalized to you.
Sixth grade is here! And life is changing. Lori Block’s friends have found new interests, her dad goes back to work, and her mom Rachel takes a more active role in basketball, causing Lori’s home life to collide with her passion. Like mother, like daughter, Lori and Rachel discover that their performances on the court or the field are one of the few things they can control in their increasingly chaotic lives.
Kirkus called Hard Court “Buoyant and breathless”, Graphic Novel Resources declared the book “Simply superb”, and fan-favorite cartoonist Faith Erin Hicks said “Mike draws with infectious cartoony energy, bringing to life the funny and insightful story of a girl who just wants to get that game winning basket”.
I hope to see you there!
