Foul Trouble - John Feinstein
This is a book about college recruiting in basketball. The two main characters, Danny and Terrell are both top college prospects. They are treated like kings. Everybody wants to just "help out," but really they are just trying to get a piece of the next great player. Agents, shoe companies, money managers, college recruiters and anybody you can imagine swarm around them. Even people who they think as friends are really just trying to get them to go to a certain college or wear their brand of shoe. Everybody is offering them large sums of money, gear and sometimes even cars or houses. Almost all of the buzzing people around Danny and Terrell are breaking a rule of some kind. Danny and Terrell seem to be living the dream, but they wouldn't say so themselves.

The Black Stallion - Walter Farley
Alec is just coming home after a great trip to see his uncle in India. He is going on a ship called the Drake to get back to South America, and from there to New York, where his family is. A week or two into the trip, a wild black stallion is loaded onto the ship. No one wants to go near the beast, except Alec. Every night he puts a lump of sugar on the horses window sill, and then walks away. The next night it is always gone. During a horrible storm, the Drake goes down. Alec and the horse are thrown off the boat. The horse, with his sharp instincts and powerful legs, starts swimming towards land. Alec suddenly remembers the rope tied to the horses neck, which was used to control it. He grabs the rope and is pulled along to shore with the horse. As their time on the island gets longer, an unlikely friendship forms between Alec and the giant horse. Eventually, they are at the point where Alec gets a ride around the island with the horse. This sparks Alec's imagination of the black being an amazing race horse in America. He could be spectacular if Alec could just get back to America...................
I would recommend this book to everybody but especially people who really like horses.
