Description of this Book
This is a delightful rhyming picture book about a girl named Lulu who prefers playing basketball to playing with dolls. In order to find more girls like herself, she decides to host the 'Basket Ball', where girls from around the globe wear sequined basketball jerseys and high-top heeled sneakers instead of ball gowns. Together they play some hoops and learn more about their favourite game. This is a fun and commercial story by a best-selling and award-winning author.
