Candlewick Press,U.S. Work with What You Got: A Memoir
Book SynopsisElite wheelchair racer and wrestler Zion Clark joins with New York Times best-selling author James S. Hirsch for a stunning memoir recounting childhood adversity, awe-inspiring perseverance and self-invention.When a baby named Zion was born in 1997 to an imprisoned, drug-addicted mother, his future seemed bleak. Born without legs due to a rare condition called caudal regression syndrome, Zion was abandoned and shunted to a foster-care system ill-equipped to care for him. In this stirring memoir, readers will follow as he is bounced from home to home, subjected to abuse, neglect and inconceivable hardship. Somehow, Zion finds supportive angels along the way: his first two foster families, who offer a haven; the wrestling coach who senses his warrior spirit and nurtures it; the woman of fierce faith who adopts a seventeen-year-old and cheers his every match. From play-by-play narration of how Zion adapts wrestling moves to defeat able-bodied opponents, wielding phenomenal arm and hand strength, to accounts of his extraordinary work ethic, unflagging optimism and motivational speaking, this is an inspirational story of courage that will appeal to any athlete who respects determination, any young person facing adversity, and any reader who wants to believe in the human spirit.

Rowman & Littlefield That's My Team!: The History, Science, and Fun
Book SynopsisHow did author Edgar Allen Poe influence the naming of the NFL’s Baltimore Ravens? What major events in US history inspired the naming of the Philadelphia 76ers, San Francisco 49ers, and Oklahoma Sooners? And what caused the NBA’s Washington Bullets to change their name to the Wizards? In That’s My Team! The History, Science and Fun behind Sports Teams’ Names, Paul Volponi shares the answers to these questions and more. He examines how teams from a variety of sports received their names, leading readers on a fast-paced journey through different parts of the US and the world. Readers are able to view history, science, literature, pop culture, and a slew of other subjects through the lens of notable sports teams. This book also includes segments on Native Americans, minorities overcoming prejudice, the growth of women’s sports, and teams from different cultures, such as Japan. That’s My Team! features fifteen challenges that test the knowledge readers have gained through the chapters, while three “timeouts” provide readers with opportunities to create meaningful names for their own brand new sports teams. Both reluctant and sports-crazed readers, teens and pre-teens alike, will find this book an exciting way to learn about a variety of subjects through their favorite sports teams.Trade ReviewPart reference guide, part history, That’s My Team is 100% fascinating. A terrific book for sports loving teens—and sports enthusiasts in general. Volponi doesn’t just tell you where your favorite team’s name comes from, he takes you on a tour through time. That’s My Team is indispensable reading for curious, thoughtful sports fans. -- Paul Griffin, YA author, The Orange Houses, Burning Blue and Stay With Me

Rowman & Littlefield Streetball Is Life: Lessons Earned on the Asphalt
Book SynopsisDuring the sweltering summer of seventeen-year-old Paul Volponi’s life, he had only goal—he wanted, no, needed to become a legitimate and respected New York City street basketball player. It was a passion that consumed him night and day, and at times even isolated him from his friends and family. So he entered through the gates of the Proving Ground, the roughest streetball yard in the city. It was a place where the fouls resembled felonies, and the atmosphere mirrored that of the Roman Coliseum more than Madison Square Garden. It was where teens and adults contested pickup games with a ferocity seemingly greater than that of the NBA Finals. The Proving Ground was a difficult place to cultivate friendships and an easy environment to make enemies. This is the story of Paul’s summer-long initiation at the Proving Ground. It is truly a streetball testament of a teenager who wanted more than anything else to earn his stripes in streetball society. Only what he didn’t understand at the time was that this experience would deliver to him, as it does today for so many young adults, a set of skills that would enhance his life far beyond the boundaries of a basketball court.Trade ReviewPaul Volponi’s latest, Streetball is Life, is a fitting heir to his signature work Black and White. The rhythm of the city streets envelops the reader with the grittiness of a hard-fought game of hoops that is careening toward an unknown finish. Volponi’s coming-of-age story will attract those just beginning to make their mark on the world as well as those further along in practicing what they learned through early competition. Streetball is Life is a slam dunk. -- Lenny Shulman, Emmy Award-winning sportswriter and author of Justify: 111 Days to Triple Crown Glory
