OK, really? The man in the middle of this cover photo is named TIM DUNCAN. Yet the description names Kevin Durant, LeBron James, and Tony Parker. I love Tony, but someone who can actually recognize the players should proofread the info first. The writeup inside is fine.
Perfect book for your 1st - 3rd grader. I bought this book to get my son excited about reading- he is a avid basketball fan and there are not a whole lot of books out there that cater to a young reader that is knowledgeable about sports. This book is fabulous at keeping my son interested, each night we read about another player and I quiz him after to check his comprehension. Because these are real people and real teams he is very interested and his comprehension is better than any fictional book we read. For the price this book is great and more than anything it has my son interested in reading. We are huge fans of these books. Cant wait until the 2016 editions come out.
Excellent addition to our school library. Great pictures & concise text.
I purchased the books for the boys in my class and they all loved it.
Nice summary of basketball players. I bought it for my son who is a relatively new basketball fan and he loved reading it.
