5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, September 12, 2004
I read this book in like a day and a half. It was very hard for me to put the book down. It kept me wanting to read more and more and more. I don't like to read books alot but my mom said it'll be the only way she saw my nose in a book and she was absolutely right. Carmelo is a very strong person inside and out and it takes courage to write down hurtful events thats happened in your life. But he survived everything and it shows. He's an amazing person to be so young and to go through a struggle so early.He deserves everything he gets.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hits the spot, January 10, 2005
By C. Meyer (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I ordered this biography of Carmelo Anthony as a Christmas gift for my son, a serious sports nut. After fighting over who would get to read it first (his sister is a big Carmelo fan too), he dove in and began to read. Several days later my son said to me, "Mom, this is a good book for me to be reading since Carmelo had struggles as a kid, too." (My husband and I recently separated and he's been struggling with that change.)

The book hit the spot (for both my children) in every way. It is well written, has great photos, is very timely and of great interest to kids.

Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Carmelo Anthony: It's Just The Beginning (Positively for Kids Book), March 12, 2006
By R. Young (Way Upstate NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Great book for kids. I bought this book for a student who had won the foul shooting competition in his age group for NYS. He has not been able to put it down. He dreams of becoming a basketball star himself. I wanted him to read about someone who has achieved this dream. Very Positive Book!!
