(4) K-3 Illustrated by Shane W. Evans. This energetic poetic romp pays tribute to former NBA player Magic Johnson. While the lively text attempts to capture the vigor and lingo of the game--"deal alley-oop dunkathon / magician passes / now, double-pump / scissor, vamp through space"--the action is not always clear. A cartoon Magic leaps and flies across the large double-page spreads.
