Children's Literature
In 2007, the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Detroit Pistons to win the Eastern Conference Finals. The key to their success was the Cavaliers' small forward Lebron James. He drove down the court to make several powerful dunks, and at the last seconds in double overtime, he made the winning lay-up from half court. Cleveland fans cheered as their team advanced to compete for the NBA championship. Born in Akron, Ohio, James grew up surrounded by family and developed a love for sports as he got older. With his crew of friends, James decided to go to a school that was better known for its academic achievements than athletics, St. Vincent-St. Mary. After a summer away from his best friends at school, James returned to his high school as a dominant figure to remember on the court. Then, [w]hen it was time for the 2003 NBA Draft, there was no question who the number one pick would beLebron James! Lebron had shown everyone that he was the best high school basketball player in the country. This selection will attract both male and female readers due to text features such as subheadings and captions under each photograph. One negative attribute is the lack of a table of contents and a failure to highlight vocabulary that a student may not be familiar with. However, this book is a good source for teaching students how to research a question or topic. Reviewer: Erika Clark
