HTML:<b>A newbie to the track team, Patina must learn to rely on her teammates as she tries to outrun her personal demons in this <i>New York Times</i> bestselling follow-up to the National Book Award finalist <i>Ghost</i> by <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Jason Reynolds.</b><br /> Ghost. Lu. Patina. Sunny. Four kids from wildly different backgrounds with personalities that are explosive when they clash. But they are also four kids chosen for an elite middle school track team—a team that could qualify them for the Junior Olympics if they can get their acts together. They all have a lot to lose, but they also have a lot to prove, not only to each other, but to themselves.<br /> <br /> Patina, or Patty, runs like a flash. She runs for many reasons—to escape the taunts from the kids at the fancy-schmancy new school she's been sent to ever since she and her little sister had to stop living with their mom. She runs from the reason WHY she's not able to live with her "real" mom anymore: 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 <i>for</i> her mom, who can't. But can you ever really run away from any of this?<br /> <br /> As the stress builds, it's building up a pretty bad attitude as well. Coach won't tolerate bad attitude. No day, no way. And now he wants Patty to run relay...where you have to <i>depend</i> on other people? How's she going to do THAT? Juvenile Literature. Juvenile Fiction. 3. Media Type: eBook. Notable Children's Books.
