The Playbook: 52 Rules to Aim, Shoot, and Score in This Game Called Life
Autor Kwame Alexander Ilustrat de Thai Neaveen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 feb 2023 – vârsta până la 12 ani
What can we imagine for our lives? What if we were the star players, moving and grooving through the game of life? What if we had our own rules of the game to help us get what we want, what we aspire to, what will enrich our lives?
Illustrated with photographs by Thai Neave, The Playbook is intended to provide inspiration on the court of life. Each rule contains wisdom from inspiring athletes and role models such as Nelson Mandela, Serena Williams, LeBron James, Carli Lloyd, Steph Curry, and Michelle Obama. Kwame Alexander also shares his own stories of overcoming obstacles and winning games in this motivational and inspirational book for readers of any age and for anyone needing a little bit of encouragement.
You gotta know the rules to play the game. Ball is life. Take it to the hoop. Soar.

"The volume reads like a series of locker- room pep talks by a coach with stories to tell and advice to give..." —Horn Book
“A stirring collection of 52 motivational poems-as-rules…” —Publishers Weekly

“Alexander uses sports as a metaphor for life in this earnest gathering of personal reminiscences.” —Booklist —
