Mikey Carmello loves football. Appointed manager for a high school team, Mikey has but just one dream in life—to score a touchdown for his beloved Wolves. Unfortunately, everyone thinks it is too risky for Mikey to play football—he has Down syndrome. But as football season ends, Mikey has no idea that someone is about to give him a break from the rain. Mikey and the high school football coach share an uncommon relationship. With Mikey’s special wish in mind, the coach begins to develop a plan to form an organized football league so that Mikey can safely score the touchdown he has always wanted to achieve. But when Mikey’s father is suddenly killed in a car accident, the coach willingly steps into a father role and begins teaching Mikey how everything is possible in life—if he just believes. As the coach and Mikey step into the future together, both are forever changed by their inspirational journey through adversity, societal labeling, and a victory like no other. A Break in the Rain is a story about how a coach chooses to be a champion for a little boy with a simple wish and lifts himself up in the process.

The Movement is a socio-economic book that relates to each segment of the family. It takes place in a college setting because the author wants to encourage the youth to take a proactive approach to correct situations that they feel are counter-productive. We must realize that there are those who can take over our ongoing system if we do not pay close attention to the things that matter to us. The author became aware of the disparity in the amount of money that the Major League Baseball players were being paid versus what the fans were expected to pay to support them during the Major League Baseball strike fourteen years ago. He chose to fight the injustice by standing up to them and boycotting their games. He believes that by speaking up for injustice, you will help your own community. After reading The Movement, the reader should think about a situation in his own hometown, and use the encouragement of The Movement to take the appropriate action. The reader most be convinced that one person can accomplish anything in life, if they understand what is needed. It is just a matter of dedicating the time and finding the right channels to fight for the change.
