A Basketball Story

32 pp. | Kane/Miller | September, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-61067-286-3 $10.99
(3) K-3 In these books a boy shares his excitement about his first practice with a "real" team. Ty is thrilled to play basketball like his older brother; Drew is psyched to wear football pads and a helmet. The upbeat texts depict friendly coaches and teammates, and the illustrations capture the funny "real" moments of youth sports: "Uh-oh, I think my pants are falling down!" Review covers these titles: A Basketball Story and A Football Story.
