"When his best friend, Gloria, gets a new bike, Julian (7) is dismayed: he
doesn't want to learn to ride, because he's afraid of falling. In a satisfying
conclusion, Julian gets his own bike as a reward for considerable labor, and
then learns what fun it can be to ride. This is a perfectly constructed young
reader, with neat turns in the plot, a loving family, and engaging
dialogue."--(pointer) "Kirkus." "Librarians wanting stories with black
protagonists will especially welcome this."-- "Booklist.
