Home Court (STAT: Standing Tall and Talented #1) (1)

I purchased this book for my 8 year old to read. He LOVED the book!!! He couldn't put it down. He used this book to write a book report for school and the teacher selected him to read his book report in front of the class. The best way to encourage reading is to provide books that are interesting and relate-able.As a mom (I read the book also) I spot read the books my son reads. I can't read them all but I read most. I thought this was a positive story that reinforced being a good person, team work, having a positive attitude, believing in yourself and never giving up.This was also the first book that we uploaded onto an iPad for him(via Kindle app). He loved reading on the iPad as much as I do. We plan to purchase all of the STAT books. I believe currently there are three.Highly recommend this book to other children.

My son enjoy reading this book as he lives basketball.

Very well written and kept the interest of my children so far (not so much my teenager). Very relatable storylines for our children. May consider ordering other books and will update my review. Ordered for KINDLE READER.

Brand new

Fun and easy to follow.

My kids loved this book and they cannot wait to get the next one in the series. I love that the characters have brown skin. I try very hard to purchase books that represent many ethnicities!

My son really enjoys basketball and we are trying to develop a love of reading as well. This book was perfect. The story was engaging, realistic and had positive messages. I look forward to purchasing the rest of the series to read with my son.

This is a great book it has a lot of lessons in the book and I think that the writer did a great job.

I bought this book for a two reasons. Firstly, to bond with my son over reading and secondly, to help him find a love books and reading that was showing. He lovvesss this book. I read one chapter to him nightly before bed. He always asks for me to read more. I plan on purchasing the rest of the series.

Aunque la historia no me la he leído, parece ser un acierto. Mi hijo está enganchado a este tipo de narrativa, y además como profe lo voy a usar en clase para motivación física y anímica. No le doy las 5 estrellas porque ha llegado roto; el embalaje estaba perfecto, pero el libro no, así que no ha sido por culpa del envío ni nada; este libro estaba roto desde que lo empaquetaron. Espero Amazon se pronuncie al respeto

You feel involved with this boy, in his life. He's got a talent for the game, and he thinks about things, and he loves his family and his friends. My son wanted to read the final pages of the big game again and again.

ideal four a young child , read with interest and easy reading ,whole collection to continue the adventure , really fun

My ten year old son absolutely loved this book, in fact he just did a book report on it. He can't wait to read more of these.
