The playbook kwame alexander5/23/2023 ![]() ![]() After book-talking this title to my classes, I had a long waiting list of students wanting to read it, and many have enjoyed it since then. The book contains 52 rules to follow to obtain success, and though the novel does focus on sports, the messages behind each rule apply to every aspect of life. ![]() It is also incredibly motivational to students because it contains inspirational quotes and anecdotes from famous professional athletes woven seamlessly into Kwame’s stories about his own personal goals, failures, and triumphs. This novel is a quick read because it has large font and interesting graphics or images on nearly every page. The Playbook, by Kwame Alexander, is a great way to help kids do just that. But I like to encourage my students to branch out and explore a variety of genres. ![]() Do any of your students immediately feel that way when they hear the word nonfiction? Mine certainly do.
