Tanner Ryan hates everything about his new town. All of his friends are back in his old city, and the only thing he likes in Woodville is his family's pool. That is until he discovers the Curves, the most amazing place ever to skateboard.

Unfortunately, on the same day he finds the Curves, he meets Bennett Parsons III, the resident bully. And the locals aren't happy that Tanner's been skateboarding all over town. Can Tanner make friends and still have fun doing what he likes to do? Or has he been doomed to a life without skateboarding?

These best-selling sports stories by Jake Maddox, with the assistance of a host of popular children's authors, are a hit with boys and girls alike!

Jake Maddox Sports stories are pumped-up, easy-to-read chapter books with an emphasis on speed, skill, and fair play, making them perfect for reluctant or emerging readers with a passion for action, adventure and sport. The boys and girls in these books face obstacles on the field, the court, the ice, or the half-pipe, and meet mental and social challenges as well. Readers discover that an athlete's inner game, persistence, and courage are just as important as a steady hand or a chance for a goal.

Teamed with Sean Tiffany's engaging illustrations, as well as bonus material such as discussion questions and writing prompts, the 'Jake Maddox' series is an excellent educational resource that kids aged 6+ won't want to put down.
