"I found this book while looking at a sports section in a book store. Myself being a big fan of Lebron, I could not resist the temptation to read about the rise of his career. Having already read numerous articles on Lebron including a book, I found this book to be a closer look into the high school years of Lebron. I wanted to understand the drive and hunger Lebron has for the game and found that even in high school, Lebron was already a person who was motivated beyond belief. Lebron only strong suit is not his game, rather Lebron is a man of words, able to speak with authority and precision."
"I thought that this book was very interesting especially beacuse it was written about an ido of mine. Lebron James is a fantastic NBA player who has had to practice a lot to become the great player he is now. The book talks about the challenges of being a star basketball player really are. Practice, practice, practice is what is needed to become a decent player. Yet, James worked harder and ran faster to become the plaeyr he is now. I learned that you have to just be better than your opponet. Run faster, hustle more, and just play better."
"LeBron James: The Rise of a Star is the greatest book I ever read. This book is great because of only one reason it tells the life of the greatest athlete of the 20 century. And how he came to be known as King James. This book is great because this book starts off at birth it tells you how LeBron James grand mom died a day before LeBron was born. It Tell how LeBron mom was only 15 years old when she, gave birth and how she's not sure who LeBron dad is. But, LeBron James was never in a stable home he could not stay with his mom because his mom couldn't take care of him. LeBron never stop he kept trying and one of his AAU coaches got him into St. Patrick's school. Then LeBron got national attention along with another high school phenom Sebastian Telfair. But, LeBron also ran onto trouble with his manager accepting money from colleges an LeBron accepting jerseys and a car. But, LeBron somehow managed not to be charged and was eligible for college but, LeBron took his chances and enrolled in the draft and was drafted 1st by his home town team Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron won rookie of the years and avg. 20 pts per. Game his first season. In conclusion LeBron James went through a life of up and down but through it all LeBron came out on top. And is known a worldwide role model in the basketball world he led his team to the 2007 NBA finals and is coutining his success by leading the NBA in pts. this year."
