This is yet another book by Fishman about LeBron James, who is the first and only player in NBA history to accumulate over 10,000 career points, rebounds, and assists.



LeBron is playing for Los Angeles Lakers and is considered one of the all-time greats. This will be a perfect gift for your children who are interested in basketball.

"Lebron James with the ball with 5 seconds left, he crosses his man, and Lebron with the shot! BANG, it's in!" We saw that multiple times from Lebron James throughout his carrer. However, he didn't start from the top. Lebron James was just a kid from Akron, Ohio with no dad and being raised by his teenage mother, Gloria James. Still Lebron was able to persevere and still become a star high school basketball player for the St Vincent- St Mary Irish, and completing high school even though that was in doubt. This was my favorite part of the book. On his way to this stage, he didn't always stay with his mother. Sometimes, he would stay with friends because his mother didn't have enough money. Lebron went straight from high school to the Nba draft and got drafted in 2003 by the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was named rookie of the year nand succeeded in Cleveland getting them to the Nba finals in 2006. Then in 2009, he took his talent to South Beach, Florida and played for the Miami Heat where he won 2 championships with Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade. Then he came back to Cleveland. This book proves you can do anything if you put your mind to it. This is a great biography and I think basketball fans would love this book.
