Horn Book (Thu Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2013)

Based on the NBA star author's own life, this third entry continues Stoudemire's journey as a promising young player. Time spent improving his game creates tension between eleven-year-old Amar'e and his dad, but an eye-injury (and new goggles) provides a fresh perspective on friends, family, and basketball. While conflicts are easily resolved, the fresh dialogue and sports action will engage basketballers.
