Walter Dean Myers' novel All the Right Stuff explores the social contract from a teenager's perspective, weaving together themes of politics, basketball, and personal responsibility.
After his father is shot and killed, Paul Dupree finds himself at a crossroads. He takes a summer job at a Harlem soup kitchen, where he begins to question life choices with the help of Elijah, the soup man. As Paul navigates this difficult time, he starts to understand the importance of taking control of his own life.
This thought-provoking novel is part of Myers' distinctive writing style, which combines depth and insight into the human experience.
