Title
Basketball Brother - Paperback
by Bo Rush (Author)
BASKETBALL BROTHER is a fast-paced basketball book perfect for middle grade readers who love sports. Like all Bo Rush books, BASKETBALL BROTHER uses sports to celebrate diversity and inclusion, grapple with important life lessons, and reaffirm important values like courage, determination, and friendship. Eleven-year-old Leo Looper is recovering from knee surgery and doesn't know if he will ever be able to play basketball again. To make matters worse, he has to move to a new school in the middle of the year. That's never easy, especially when you have to hide the fact that you can't read. But Leo overcomes those obstacles, reaching new heights by slam dunking on the school bully and making an unexpected best friend -- the girl who becomes his teammate and reading tutor. The reading level for BASKETBALL BROTHER is in the third through sixth grade range. Struggling readers who love playing sports will be able to connect with BASKETBALL BROTHER on a personal level. Proficient readers will reinforce their skills while enjoying the sports action and youthful issues presented in the text.
Author Biography
As a boy, Bo Rush loved to read sports stories. In fact, he refused to read anything else. That singular passion resulted in proficient reading skills -- skills that transferred to other genres when Bo was in high school and college. For the last two decades, Bo has taught Language Arts in Colorado. Every year, Bo sees students who avoid reading. They start and quickly abandon books others are reading because of the level of difficulty or unappealing subject matter. That's why Bo wrote SOCCER BUGS, BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN, BASKETBALL BROTHER, OKLAHOMA SHAKE, and SOCCER SIDEKICKS -- for kids who love sports but don't love reading. He wants to spark that love of reading in youngsters, particularly those who are struggling to find the right book. Learn more about this great sports book series at borushbooks.com.
