[ISLMA-Share] The Playbook by Alexander - age range?

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Hi Folks,

Has anyone read The Playbook: 52 Rules to Aim, Shoot, and Score in This
Game Called Life by Kwame Alexander? Looking at three reviews, 2 say it
starts at 5th grade, but one says it starts at 7th grade. Is there anything
in the book to make it inappropriate for 5th grade students?

Thanks,
Stephanie
