About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels discouraged by their physical size or is struggling to keep up with peers in a new activity. It is the perfect choice for a young athlete who feels overlooked or told they are not enough for their chosen dream. This biography of Stephen Curry explores how the NBA legend overcame being labeled too small and too thin for the professional game through relentless practice and a focus on specialized skills like the three-point shot. Beyond basketball, the story focuses on the emotional themes of resilience and self-confidence. It shows children that success is rarely a straight line and that professional athletes face rejection too. Written for the 7 to 10 age range, the chapter book format is approachable for early readers while providing enough depth to keep older students engaged. It serves as a powerful reminder that hard work and a positive mindset can eventually outshine natural physical advantages.
