A day that forever changed the nation ... The only thing Lucas loves more than football is his uncle Benny, his dad’s best friend at the firehouse where they both work. Benny taught Lucas everything about football. So when Lucas’s parents decide the sport is too dangerous and he needs to quit, Lucas has to talk to his biggest fan. The next morning, Lucas takes the train into New York City instead of the bus to school. It’s a bright, beautiful day as he heads to the firehouse. But just as he arrives, everything changes—and nothing will ever be the same again.
