Yasha's Amazin' Bar Mitzvah
A Russian American boy searches for his identity, true friends, and above all, tickets to see the Mets win the World Series in this heartfelt novel from Margaret Gurevich. It's 1986, and thirteen-year-old Yasha Reznik doesn't understand why his parents moved them all from his Russian community of Brighton Beach to the suburbia of Rockwood, New Jersey. Sure, it may be their "American Dream," but it's not his. Yasha's dream is to make it through his Bar Mitzvah, watch the New York Mets make it to the playoffs, and fit in at his new school. But fitting in may be harder than he thinks, when he's one of only two Russian families in town and all the kids he meets keep calling him Drago (thanks Rocky movies), even after he starts going by "Jake" instead of "Yasha." The only person who seems to really get him is Bernie, his pal from the senior citizen home where Yasha is doing community service for his Bar Mitzvah project. Then Bernie says his dream is also to see the Mets win the World Series. And Yasha may not know his Torah portion yet, or why he feels alone even with his new "friends," but he does know one thing: somehow, someway, he's going to get those tickets.
