Game

The book "Game" written by Walter Dean Myers is a very good book. If you love the game of basketball, then I guarantee you'll love this book. The main character is a senior in high school by the name of Andrew Lawson but everyone calls him Drew. Drew knows basketball is going to take him places. Drew knows the game of basketball, he actually knows it quite well. He is a young African American boy from Harlem trying to achieve his goals and get many scholarships to different colleges so he can be successful.

Drew has many trials to face throughout this book to reach his goal. Drew also has many goals and ambition. He is very confident playing basketball, but does he have too much confidence in himself? Drew and his team try to make it as far as they can in basketball tournaments against other high school teams. The only way Drew can get into college is with basketball because his grades aren't getting him anywhere.

I recommend this book to everyone because, it teaches you how to have confidence in yourself. This book shows you how to encourage yourself when nobody else will. I also recommend this book to anyone who loves the game of basketball! Walter Dean Myers is an outstanding author!
