Description

In his author-illustrator debut, Charly Palmer spins a tall tale about a neighborhood basketball hero named Gravity, the greatest ball player to ever lace up a pair of sneakers. As a new member of the Hillside Projects basketball team, the Eagles, Gravity's exceptional skills make the team feel unstoppable as they aim to win Milwaukee’s biggest pick-up basketball tournament, 'The Best of the Best.' However, in the final round against the winningest team, the Flyers, the Eagles realize that winning may require more than just Gravity's prowess.
