In this book, beginning readers are introduced to the basketball court, rules of play, and basketball equipment and gear. Highfrequency words and repetitive sentence patterns work together with strong visual references to support the earliest readers and create a fun first nonfiction reading experience. Basketball includes Tools for Teachers and Caregivers, a Let's Review! question and image, and introductory nonfiction features such as labels, a table of contents, words to know, and an index. Basketball is part of Jump!'s Let's Play Sports! series.
