0 - Default Title
Description
When Jackson discovers Papa's old dirt bike hidden away in the garage, he finds something words cannot give him: motion, focus, and a way forward. With a local youth riding challenge on the horizon, Jackson commits to rebuilding the bike one piece at a time, leaning on the guidance of family members and trusted adults along the way.
Garage Rules is a middle-grade sports novel about grief, resilience, and learning how to keep going.Written for readers ages 10-14, the story features a neurodivergent protagonist with ADHD and highlights strengths often overlooked: creativity, hyperfocus, persistence, and problem-solving. As Jackson learns to ride smarter, ask for help, and trust himself, the garage becomes a place of healing, connection, and growth.
This action-driven coming-of-age story blends dirt bike racing, family legacy, and social-emotional learning in an accessible, hopeful way.Perfect for readers who enjoy hands-on challenges and heart-filled stories, Garage Rules is well suited for classrooms, libraries, and independent reading. The book includes an Educator Discussion Guide, making it a valuable resource for conversations about perseverance, mentorship, and emotional regulation.
Sometimes healing does not happen all at once. Sometimes it happens one ride at a time.
