"Hoops with Swoopes", Susan Kuklin with Sheryl Swoopes

I think this is a great book for many ages.  It works particularly well for toddlers, as the pictures are full of action and the pages aren’t too wordy.  It is also a great book for a child learning the technique and skills of basketball.  Each page features a different skill demonstrated by the incredibly muscular and agile superstar, Sheryl Swoopes.  Any sports books starring female athletes are high on my list to read with Rowen.  As Rowen would say “She shoots she SCORES!” For more info, click here.

  1. I came across this book a few weeks ago. It's a bit "young" in format (board book), but the message fits nicely with what you're trying to do.
