If you have a Michael Jordan fan in your house, or if you’re looking to boost your child’s confidence, be SURE to grab this book! The boys in our school fight over this book come checkout time in the library. It’s just adorable – how Michael lacked both the size and confidence of being tall enough to play basketball. So, his mother came up with one of the neatest solutions I’ve ever heard for patience – salt in his shoes and prayer. Great, great book, teaches about confidence and pursuing your goals. Can’t say enough good about it – highly, highly recommend!

I read this book to my son in the summer of 2008 and he loved it. His 7th Birthday is in Aug and will receive this item as a special surprise. Jordan is one of his favorites (in more than just sport and books!). The story is great and I love that my son can relate to him. The book, although big, is thin but was received in great condition.

This is a wonderful book. I purchased it for my 8 year old nephew and he absolutely enjoys it. He reads it all the time especially before his basketball games. Its wonderful and inspirings and lets kids know with hard work their dreams can come to fruition.

There once was a kid that just wanted to play baskerball with his older bothers but there is a taller kid at the basketball park. That all was picked on him and told him he cant play bastekball because he was to short. So Micheal asked his mom how can he grow faster. She told him to put salt in shoes every night before he goes to bed. so he does for two mouths and doesnt grow. so his dad has a talk with him. Then he goes and playes and the game.
