When I Was the Greatest

Great voice and powerful story with some memorable characters. Really appreciated seeing some much needed representation including poverty and disability (two characters are disabled—one a double amputee and the other has Tourette's Syndrome) through the perspective of a Black boy. Lots to think about and appreciate with this one.

Diversity note: Nearly all the characters are POC, and there are two disabled minor(ish) characters, as mentioned above.

Solid 3 1/2. Believable and strong characters, great boy friendships. Audio narrator was perfect
