Customer Reviews

Interesting book for young and old!

Bought this book for our 4yr. old grandson who loves basketball and he studies the pictures even though he can't read yet. Loves to take it in the car with him on long drives.

Everything Basketball

This was a great book. It told a lot about NBA players before a basketball game. It shows how they get set up for a big basketball game. The book also tells us how the basketball, hoop and backboard were invented. If you love basketball, you would enjoy this book.
