(3) 1-3 When his mom marries Mr. Jordan, Michael Brown becomes Michael Jordan. Hampered by a name he can't possibly live up to (he can't shoot a basket or hit a baseball), Michael searches for a way to fit in at his new school. Young readers will empathize with Mike as he struggles to make friends and begins to develop a relationship with his stepfather. Realistic black-and-white drawings accompany the story.
