LeBron James is a sports phenom and these books might get your hesitant kids reading.
I found 3 books at the First Grade reading level. One is for younger readers who are working at the 1st Grade level. The remaining 2 are Hi/Low readers. That is, they are for older readers (4th-8th Grade) that are reading at this level. The fantastic topic might hook them on reading!
