---

Small Steps by Louis Sachar (ISBN: 978-0-385-73315-1) follows Theodore “Armpit” Johnson as he tries to rebuild his life after leaving a juvenile correctional camp. Determined to take “small steps” toward change, he works as a landscaper, attends summer school, and supports his best friend, Ginny, a girl with cerebral palsy. His quiet progress is shaken when X-Ray, an old friend, persuades him to join a ticket-scalping scheme for pop star Kaira DeLeon’s concert. The plan backfires, drawing suspicion and nearly ruining his new path. Unexpectedly, Armpit meets Kaira, and their growing friendship shows him trust, hope, and the possibility of a better future. However, Kaira’s corrupt manager betrays her violently, putting Armpit in danger again. Through resilience and loyalty, he learns that true progress is slow and steady, made one small step at a time.
