In "Mike Stellar: Nerves of Steel" by K.A. Holt, middle schooler Mike Stellar feels like an outsider, grappling with the challenges of fitting in while also dealing with the struggles of a family in financial turmoil. With dreams of becoming a skateboard star, he faces both the physical and emotional obstacles that come with growing up. As he navigates friendships, his passion for skateboarding, and the pressure of his family's expectations, Mike learns about resilience, self-acceptance, and the importance of standing up for himself, all while maintaining a sense of humor and hope.
