Track (Book 5)
Before Coach was the man who gave caring yet firm guidance to Ghost, Lu, Patina, and Sunny on the Defenders track team, he was little Otie Brody, who was obsessed with Mr. 9.99 (a.k.a. Carl Lewis). Like Mr. 9.99 - and his own dad - Otie is a sprinter. Sprint free or die is practically his motto. Then his dad, who is always away on business trips, comes home with a pair of Jordans. Otie puts them on and feels like he can leap to the moon ... maybe even leap like Mr. 9.99 when he won the Olympic gold medal in the long jump. But one morning he wakes up to find his brand-new kicks are missing - right off his feet! Not only are the Jordans missing, but so is his father.
