[BOOK REVIEW] WHO IS LEBRON JAMES? celebrates the man behind the fame

 


Author Crystal Hubbard is someone that I've gotten to know for writing engaging books for all ages. Her newest WHO IS LEBRON JAMES? is a great bridge for both young readers and adults. 

I love how she is able to take someone as well-known as Lebron James and make him relatable and share details readers like myself have never known. We are able to see what made the made: how he excelled in spite of challenges at home and in his career, and the way he has been able to motivate and inspire while pursuing his goals and dreams. 

Who is Lebron James is the kind of book that young people can read and aspire to emulate as they pursue their own passions. It is also the kind of book that adults can read for the same reason, remembering that it is never to late to make a difference. 

Ready to be inspired and get to know Lebron James in ways that may surprise you? This is the kind of book you want to read.

[BOOK REVIEW] Author Kelly Yang's FINALLY SEEN shows what it means to know you matter in the world


 I love books that make you see yourself and others in a different light, reminding us of the importance we all have in the world. Kelly Yang's FINALLY SEEN is that kind of book for young and old. 

We're able to see Lina, a girl trying to navigate her new normal while also dealing with her own feelings of loneliness and insecurities. What we find is that others get to SEE her and help her to SEE HERSELF. That is the beginning of her not just finding her place but showing others what they can do as well.

These days we all need these reminders, that who we are matters. FINALLY SEEN shows what it means to know you matter in the world, and just by your being yourself you can make a difference.
