Illustrated by
Theodore, III Taylor.
A series about the retired NBA star as a young boy continues with Little Shaq, who's used to excelling on the basketball court, feeling nervous for the upcoming art show ("I'm no good at art"). Its lessons--"keep an open mind"; "try something new"--are glaring, but newly independent readers will easily handle the amiable story's three short, generously illustrated chapters.
