Product Description

From the first jump ball and its humble beginnings at a YMCA with a couple of peach baskets, to the final buzzer and the glam of an NBA slam, basketball bounces onto your bookshelves with J is For Jump Shot. As with the other Sleeping Bear sports titles (7 titles and over 400,000 in print) it is the perfect introduction to the game. Whether reluctant or voracious, readers will be entertained as they learn the rules, fundamentals, famous players and plays.Young fans and old will find nothing but net with Mark Braught+s dynamic illustrations as their many questions are answered - What was the role of Dr. James Naismith in developing the game? Why do referees sometimes place their palm on their head? And who scored more points than any other NBA player?

5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas presents, February 13, 2008
My daughter is going to be a elementary teacher and she is collecting these books for her classroom. She loved it!
I bought it for Christmas for her. I bought a couple others as well. They were a big hit Christmas morning. She likes the fact that the book has both a version for older and a version for younger children right within the book.
