Jim Nasium Is a Tennis Mismatch

(4) 1-3 Jim Nasium series. Illustrated by Chris Jones. With the support of his best friend, Milo, ten-year-old Jim Nasium, a dedicated but klutzy elementary-school athlete, finally finds some success. The plots are facile, but these feel-good underdog stories are laced with puns and lots of humor for young readers. The cartoony black-and-white illustrations capture the high points as well as Jim's many sporting missteps. Review covers the following Jim Nasium titles: Jim Nasium Is a Strikeout King and Jim Nasium Is a Tennis Mismatch.
