Deloris JordanSalt in His Shoes: Michael Jordan in Pursuit of a Dream

this book is an excellent book for kids. it adds a certain amount of mystery and wonder and"what if", to the book which I think is a way to gives kids a boost, intellectually which should not be underestimated. after all we want to excite our children's imagination. It is a book worth reading

Such a great book!We got it for our three year old son who loves basketball and is really into watching space jam. He always wants to be Michael Jordan when he’s shooting on his little tykes net.Not only does he want to read this book all the time, but he now better understands patience, practice, and how eating all your meals (veggies) will make you grow bigger and stronger.All in all a win I’d say!10/10 would recommend. This book is for kids a bit older than our son I believe, but he loves it since he’s really into MJ!

Inspirational story, that just resonates so much with kids, stunning illustrations, this was a great buy ! Highly recommend.

Son un gran admirador de Michael Jordan, y esta historia muestra lo perseverante que era MJ y nos muestra una pequeña historia de como empezó a jugar con la complicidad de su Madre y pequeño empujón de la inocencia que tenemos de niños. Las ilustraciones no son lo mejor que he visto, pero aún así me gustó mucho.

I read this book to my class (age 7) to compliment a lesson I was doing about resilience. The boys and girls cheered at the end of the story. I think they enjoyed it!
