Heart warming
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Rick Telander spins the tale of a young boy who loves basketball, although he is not a great player. The boy comes from a troubled home and is not treated well by his coach. Still, the boy pushes onward with his dreams. The story is a pretty good story, but more important is Telander's writing style. Telander totally captures the mind and heart of the youngster. He obviously feels what this kid feels and he conveys that feeling beautifully to his audience all throughout the book. More than just reading the story, I walked away feeling a lot of the emotions.

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
String Music is about a boy who loves basketball. He's having some problems at home, so he sneaks off to a NBA basketball game where he will see his favorite basketball player, Jasper Jasmine. After the game he sneaks off into the locker room to get a couple of words with Jasper Jasmine. Before he gets thrown out after the game he started crying because he was thinking about his mom's problems. Jasper pulls up at a red light in his black Ferrari and talks with the boy. He takes the boy home, and the next week the boy gets a letter aking if he could be a ball boy for four home games. He convinces his mom to let him go. They become friends and this helps the boy. I liked this book because I like basketball and I` would like to meet a basketball star.
