But when Harp says he has to get a job, Cole winds up as a stable hand for the polo team at George Washington Military Academy, where the players are rich, white, and stuck-up--all except Ruthie, the team's first and only girl, who's determined to show the others she can beat them at their own game. As Cole and Ruthie become friends--and maybe more--he starts imagining his future, maybe even at the academy. But between long workdays, arrogant polo players, and a cousin trying to pull Cole into his dangerous business, that future seems remote. Will Cole find the courage to stand and be seen in a world determined to keep him out? With striking illustrations by Jesse Joshua Watson, celebrated author G. Neri's novel weaves themes of tenacity and community into a rousing sports story inspired by Philadelphia's real-life urban cowboys and polo players. How does a Black kid from North Philly wind up playing polo? The much-anticipated sequel to Ghetto Cowboy, now a major motion picture starring Idris Elba and Stranger Things's Caleb McLaughlin."-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 1 $a 10-14 years. 521 2 $a Grades 5-9. 650 0 $a Fathers and sons $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Horses $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Polo $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Conduct of life $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a City and town life $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a African Americans $v Juvenile fiction. 651 0 $a Philadelphia (Pa.) $v Juvenile fiction. 700 1 $a Watson, Jesse Joshua, $e illustrator. 941 $a 18 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417015859.0 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104020841.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20231118010407.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024610.0 952 $l XCPB737 $d 20230808011226.0 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331014357.0 952 $l ZUPD675 $d 20230329011646.0 952 $l BLPC611 $d 20220607011918.0 952 $l VPPC384 $d 20220602023756.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518025925.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20220405013243.0 952 $l CUPC586 $d 20220309010202.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20220301010859.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220202022032.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20220104011548.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215015054.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20211130012416.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211016010225.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=551C64902E4611ECB49FBC5739ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
