Basketball Battles
What's This Book About
Raven is dealing with a lot–her grandmother’s recent death, a knee injury from an accident, and a tiff with her best friend. But she’s determined to prove to her basketball coach that her knee is in good enough shape for her to play in the Jammin’ Salmon basketball tournament, which she’s been participating in since she was little. So she pushes herself–and her teammates–a little too much while trying to prove she should play in the tournament. But to really get back into the game, Raven will have to battle her own feelings of anger and sadness first–and make some amends.

The Creative Behind the Book
Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler - or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps - literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.
