     He was called the best high school basketball player ever. He made the cover of Sports Illustrated as a junior; he was featured on national television, and signed more than $100 million in promotional contracts before the end of his senior year. He became the no-doubt number one draft choice, right after high school graduation.  LeBron James was born into poverty by a 16 year old mother, without a stable home. This story is about how LeBron didn’t become another kid who failed to do anything in life. “life had been hard, now it is harder.”(17). this was when Gloria, LeBron’s mom, got pregnant. It’s about how he became who he is today. Sports writer David Lee jr. captures all of LeBron’s life and the friends and family members how helped him. I would recommend this book to someone who likes the game of basketball, likes inspiring stories and likes LeBron James.

  1. It's amazing how he was drafted right out of high school and was so successful at such a young age.
