Reading library books with the Littles is always fun. While they enjoy me reading to them, I love their questions and observations.

This book was mostly about basketball’s greatest players.
one of the most interesting things i learned was how to do a sky hook.
something i would like to know more about after reading the book is
how to do a slam dunk.
I would recommend this book because it gives you info about basketball.
