Last one picked for basketball
A short story I wrote for Scholastic's Action is in the issue dated today. The magazine is aimed at middle schoolers who read below grade level.The story was inspired by a 7th grade gym class experience of mine.
Except the scoring part.Scholastic has kindly given me permission to post the story here:![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij8NhL-Aq5qjxO9HVhwuV-4ROQOyt6wTdwJ3gYSZ4Gr1uZ8L9Oubs8oByCRabIrtfkIuxrqbCi9Jx7f0oR2o1_IJwEVr5OrV6uVJvr03yfxw9jhOZgFArVbThmBlGHG_2kMkSkC1RaDfah/s400/Nobleman+-+Scholastic+Action+-+The+Last+One+Picked+1.jpg)

Thanks for this! My 7-year old son was crying about always being picked last in gym this morning. I am glad that I'll be able to share this story with him tonight.
Delighted to hear this, Anonymous! And a possibility I had not considered, making it even more heartening. Thanks for sharing.
