Gus and Grandpa at Basketball

Gus and Grandpa at Basketball by Mills, Claudia. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780374328184.

"A great intergenerational team." --Kirkus Reviews Gus loves basketball -- that is, basketball practice with Pete, the coach, and shooting baskets at Grandpas house with only Grandpas dog, Skipper, in attendance. Basketball games are another story. What if Gus misses every basket, and everybody laughs? If only his parents wouldnt come. Gus is especially unnerved by his fathers shouting. Then Grandpa comes to Guss last game and teaches him the secret of success -- to tune out the other voices and listen to his own. Claudia Mills and Catherine Stock present the seventh beginning reader starring Gus and Grandpa, of whom Kirkus Reviews says, "Theyre lucky to have each other -- and readers are lucky to have them."
