Gooder Than Gold

By Michael Marrone

Sam Gold knew he was light years away from being perfect, but always figured at least he was normal. Now he's not so sure. Sam likes to walk his neighborhood alone twice a day, and his father thinks that's just plain weird. A kid Sam's age should be out riding a bike, not walking the streets like a homeless person. The problem is Sam hasn't been on a bike in two years, and his father darn well knows the reason why.It's the summer before high school. The girl of Sam's dreams suddenly treats him like a first-grader, and a new neighborhood bully is making life miserable. As the summer heats up, Sam vows to confront his troubles head on, but must first face a painful moment from his past and a tragic lesson from the present. It's the hardest thing he's ever tried to do. Without help from some unlikely new friends, he won't make it past the first step-or the first turn of the wheels.
