Apollo can take my back any time. I was very surprised when I found out that he wrote this book when he was only 13. I think there should be a lot more books written by kidz for kidz like this one. Apollo spoke to me in my own words and I believe what he says. Some of these stories are sad or violent but all of them teach on tha real. I liked 'Four Wolves And A Panther' because tha white boy was really tha best panther of all. 'Trash Walks' was like a reminder that a lot of people don't care if kidz live or die. 'Bad Boyz' was an on point story about what being a black man should be all about and not what so many kidz think it's all about. 'Blackbirder' was a sweet story about how most of the 'history' we are taught in school is really European history. I hope Apollo writes a lot more books. Don't listen to 'Kirkus Reviews', and don't sleep on this book.
