Description: "A close game of basketball played by a diverse group of first and second graders is full of suspense, joy--and good sportsmanship, too"--

Review Quotes: It's hard to resist getting drawn into the final seconds of a close game, and this book brings readers right into that feeling. . . . A narrative for very early readers that doesn't sacrifice story in the name of decodability? That's a definite win!
