LeBron James
When LeBron James was almost four, he received a toy basketball set for Christmas. His family was amazed to see him dunk the ball. Fans today are still amazed by the skills and talent that have led him to be known as "King James." This inspiring biography, with its lively layout, colorful photographs, and accessible text, is ideal for early independent readers.
* Reviews *
African-American Heroes series. This book introduces early readers to the life and accomplishments of the basketball star who went straight from high school to the NBA. Unfortunately, the choppy text and sketchy information will leave them with more questions than answers. Pictures of LeBron in action are interesting, but other stock photos are just page-fillers.
