When I Was the Greatest is a standalone title by Jason Reynolds. In Bed Stuy, Brooklyn, Ali isn’t interested in the guns and drugs that give his neighbourhood a bad name. He’s got enough going on, between school and boxing and helping out at home. His best friend Noodles, though. Now there’s a dude looking for trouble – and, somehow, it’s always Ali around to pick up the pieces. He figures a guy’s gotta look out for his boys. Besides, it’s just small-time stuff; it’s not like anyone’s getting hurt. And then there’s Needles. Needles is Noodles’s brother. He’s got a syndrome, and gets these ticks and blurts out the wildest, craziest things. It’s cool, though: everyone on their street knows he doesn’t mean anything by it. Yeah, it’s cool… until Ali and Noodles and Needles find themselves somewhere they never expected to be… somewhere they never should’ve been – where not everyone is so friendly, and even less forgiving.
