Slam Dunk Sammy Sammy is the smallest kid on the basketball court. But ever since the first time his father held him up to dunk a ball, Sammy felt like he was meant to fly.

Each day, Sammy tries and tries again until one day, he becomes a neighborhood legend. Readers will learn about the important skills of setting goals and staying disciplined in this inspirational tale of the power of determination.
