About this listen
Before he became one of the most famous basketball players on the planet, before he began speaking out for justice, LeBron James was just a kid.
In this chapter book biography by acclaimed author Andrew Maraniss, listeners learn more about the life and work of LeBron James—from growing up with a single mother in Akron, Ohio, to his journey to the NBA and ten NBA championships, to his social justice work creating I PROMISE and speaking up for Black Lives Matter.
While known as one of the greatest basketball players of all time, LeBron James has changed the world beyond sports.
Complete with resources and ways for kids to make a difference on their own, Beyond the Game is an inspirational series for every listener.
Critic Reviews
"With wide-spaced lines of text and attractive, digital illustrations in black and white, the books in this series will appeal to young readers with an interest in basketball and how some of its brightest stars are using their wealth and influence to improve the lives of others. This series’ dual purpose offers a refreshing shift of emphasis from the usual sports biographies."--Booklist Reviews
"A portrait of the 'best basketball player on the planet,' focusing particularly on his off-the-court I PROMISE initiative. . . to his work with his hometown's low-income families, his public protests in the wake of the killings of Trayvon Martin and other Black victims. . . LeBron is a charismatic figure in Hodge's monochrome illustrations."--Kirkus Reviews
