*"Epic Basketball Stories"* is a fantastic book that goes beyond the game itself, sharing inspiring stories of basketball heroes and legends while teaching valuable life lessons. Dylan Ambrose and the team at Yearn More Publications have done an excellent job of making these stories engaging for young readers.
What makes this book stand out is how it blends history, character-building, and fun activities. It’s not just about famous players; it’s about perseverance, teamwork, and overcoming challenges—lessons that kids can apply both on and off the court. The writing is clear and engaging, making it easy for kids to follow along and stay interested.
Whether you have a young basketball fan in your life or just want to encourage a love of reading through sports, this book is a great choice. Highly recommend for parents, coaches, and educators!

What really stood out to me is how the book manages to keep things exciting while also being incredibly meaningful. Each chapter feels like a mini adventure, filled with cool facts, relatable struggles, and uplifting wins. You can tell the goal isn’t just to entertain—it’s to teach and empower young readers to believe in themselves.
My nephew and I especially loved the fun activities at the end of each section—it made the lessons stick and gave us something to talk about afterward.
Whether you're raising a future athlete or just want a motivating audiobook for your child, this one’s a win. It sparks curiosity, builds character, and shows that greatness comes from heart, not just talent.
