Bump is a story about a Hispanic girl named MJ (Maya Jocelyn) who loves wrestling. When she finds out that her neighbor Mr. Arelleno teaches a wrestling school, she wants in. With enough pestering both her mother and Mr. Arelleno let her join. But when a bureaucrat from the State Athletic Commission tries to shut down the school, MJ wonders how she can help. I recommend this book to wrestling fans, but it is still a good read for anyone.
