There's only one way out.... Todd Wilkins is a great basketball player. His dad thinks nothing is more important. But when Todd joins a creative-writing class taught by an exciting new teacher named Mark Ramirez, Todd discovers he has other talents, too. The more time Todd spends on his writing, the less time he spends on basketball—and Mr. Wilkins isn't happy. But he doesn't blame Todd. Instead, he wants the school to fire Mr. Ramirez. Todd doesn't want to let his father or Mr. Ramirez down, but he can't find a solution to his problems. So Todd plans to run away. Can Elizabeth Wakefield convince him not to go?
