About
Basketball clinics, a revolving door of coaches, incensed parents, and the importance of the right sneakers-is that what the game is about? Told from the perspective of four unlikely friends, Nora Raleigh Baskin's poignant novel focuses on the action, drama, and fun of playing ball and explores what it takes to be a winner of the game-both on the court and off.
