Snowboard Maverick

Great

I thought this was a very good book and one of my favorites out of all the matt Christopher books I have read

Can a skateboard pro conquer the slopes? Dennis O'Malley is tested when it starts to snow, and he has to shelf his skateboard. Dennis is a hard core skater who learns to snowboard. He learns at a school with the help of his friends. Dennis wants to board, but his parents don't want him to, so he boards on his own time. But when he goes the mountain is divided into two. His experience is tested when he must race on Ford's Mountain, to share the mountain. Personally, my favorite part is when Dennis catches big air, and has to ride down the mountain to get help, to save his friends, which are stuck, because one decide to try and drop in, but she had no real experience with the sport. This is my favorite part because it shows how strong Dennis's friendship really is. This book is really about a teenage boy who falls in love with a new action sport. The theme of this book is just really about following what you love. What I personally liked about this book was that it dealed with snowboarding which I love. If I could change one thing though, I would make the plot not so near the end. Anyone who enjoys action/sports books should read this.

Son Loved it!

This book was a great inspiration to me. I am a big fan of Matt Christopher and Snowboard Maverick had to be the best one yet. It is about a boy named Dennis O'malley. He was the best skateboarder in town until winter came. He was all alone in winter. Then he saw a snowboard and wanted to try it. When Christmas came he got a snowboard for Christmas. He practiced and practiced and got better and better. There are a few morals to the story. When you practice enough you will be great at something. Conquer your fear of hights and fears of breaking any bones.This book was a great book and a good learning experiense.

I am Ross Steven W. and I like snowboarding and soccer books. Even though I am only 7, I could read the whole book. I liked the part on Snowboard Maverick when Dennis learned to snowboard. I liked Renny in Soccer Duel.
