Perfect for fans of Kelly Yang, Meg Medina, and Jason Reynolds' Track series!MJ knows what it means to hurt. Bruises from gymnastics heal, but big hurts-like her dad not being around anymore-don't go away.
Now her mom needs to work two jobs, and MJ doesn't have friends at school to lean on. There is only one thing MJ loves: the world of professional wrestling. She especially idolizes the luchadores and the stories they tell in the ring. When MJ learns that her neighbor, Mr. Arellano, runs a wrestling school, she has a new mission in life: join the school, train hard, and become a wrestler. But trouble lies ahead.
After wrestling in a showcase event, MJ attracts the attention of Mr. Arellano's enemy at the State Athletic Commission. There are threats to shut the school down, putting MJ's new home-and the community that welcomed her-at risk. What can MJ do to save her new family?* A Junior Library Guild Selection * Banks Street Best Children's Books of the Year *
