Will Gooch
The Book of Basketball
Bill Simmons
Sports Non-Fiction
Just Right
Page 68

1) Well this book isn't exactly like your average book. Its more of lots and lots of facts about basketball that are all put together in different sections and chapters. Right now in the book though Bill Simmons is talking about the debate of who was a better player, the mighty Wilt Chamberlain or Bill Russel.
2) So far the book has been good. I've learned a good deal about the history of basketball and just some facts about the sport. It seems to be a very interesting book so far.
3) A big theme that i've noticed so far would be sportsmanship. It's something you need in sports and that all of the players have.
4) There aren't really characters per say because its more of a biography of basketball so far. So I don't have a favorite character.
5) Continuing with what I said in the last question, I have no least favorite character.
6) For what I think will happen next, I can't really tell but I think Simmons will continue talking about Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russel.
