Lone Star Book: Sasquatch in the Paint by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

So I come from a huge sports family. My dad was a basketball and baseball player. He actually went pro in baseball for a little while before having a family. So it was natural for me to start playing basketball. It became my world from the time I was in second grade until my freshman year of college when they said I could not play anymore. But to this day, I still dream about playing.

One of the newest Lone Star books is about a boy who grows really tall in one summer and he is expected to be good at basketball. Check out this video...

P.S. I have not read this book yet because it is always checked out! 


Tesla's Attic by Neal Shusterman and Eric Elfman

Yesterday's visit with Neal Shusterman and Eric Elfman was amazing. The student audience was perfect, their presentation with very interesting, and the questions were thought probing. All in all...best visit.

My students all got their copies of Tesla's Attic a day early...and I already have most of them almost done with it. I had to tell them to slow down since the next one does not come out for another year.

But it all seriousness, this is an amazing book that readers are going to fly through! You must get a copy!!!
