(4) 4-6 STAT series. Illustrated by Tim Jessell. Based on the NBA star author's own life, these first two entries follow eleven-year-old Amar'e as he stands up to older boys disrespecting the neighborhood court (Home Court) and maintaining friendships when his basketball talents excel (Double Team). Stoudemire's concentration on family, friendship, and doing the right thing leans toward preachy, but kids will focus on the action-packed basketball details. Review covers these STAT titles: Home Court and Double Team.
