Hoop Dreams
Michael Kurkowski
Van Antwerp Middle School
Grade 6
Hoop Dreams is a story about two young basketball superstars. Their names
are William Gates and Arthur Agee.
William goes to St. Joseph's to play basketball. When he goes to the counseling
center to check his grades with his teachers, they said, " You must
be one heck of a ballplayer." He started at a fifth grade level (so
did Arthur.) They both go through basketball and life with pain, and greatness.
I would recommend this book it tells what might happen to another young
superstar
