Isaiah Dunn is in middle school. He, his mom, and his sister live with a neighbor while their mom finishes school and works on feeling better. Isaiah's best friend Angel always has business ideas. Isaiah is a wonderful artist and people buy his art. Angel thinks they could use some quick cash and they start making birthday cards. He is also in business with his friend Sneaky selling candy and pop. He's good at making money. At his school, there are after-school clubs, and one is called Rockets Reach Back. That means an older child is paired up with a younger child who is in trouble. He is supposed to be a mentee for Kobee, but Kobee is nothing but trouble. Can Isaiah, with all he has going on, pull up a new superpower and figure out what is with Kobee and help him?
This was amazing! Wish all troubled kids had an Isaiah in their lives! Isaiah is just an all-around good kid. He is always busy, always helping his mom, his sister his teacher and Kobee. It is a feel-good, heartwarming story. The characters are African American
