Short Takes: Fast-Break Basketball Poetry

32 pp. | Dutton | February, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-525-46454-9 $$17.99
(3) 4-6 The swift rhythm of these poems matches the fast pace of basketball. Text and color photos are artfully placed on double-page spreads, conveying the movement of the game and the energetic tone of the poems. Each poem captures a pure moment in basketball--the beauty of a pass, a spin, a shot. A glossary of poetry terms is appended.
