My book hoop Dreams is pretty much a given on why I chose it. I love basketball, esopecially documentary stories. These kids are just like any of us thats the thing that really gets me. I like the fact that there is some realism in the fact that in pretains to us. I hate reading i think you already know that, although the only thing that keeps me reading are stories like this, basketball documentaries.

The story starts off with two young teenagers just entering thier years in high school. The two boys William Gates and Arthur Agee begin to become rising phinoms. Thier lives are not the easiest in the world growing up in the hood and all. but they overcome all of the odds and stun the athletic world with thier skills. the two became stars, the story travels with them all throughout high school until they go on to the College level and the story lives on.

The people i would recommend this book to are deffinantly people who like basketball or any sports at that matter. the situations that the boys are put into are relivant to all of ours today. So if you are in the mood for one of the best documentaries that you have ever read than go fetch this book. On the other hand if you are like myself and would rather enjoy a nice movie which isnt so brain staking rent the movie at blockbuster.
