Theme and Summary

The independent novel I chose was Larry bird watching. I would say the theme of this novel is "never give up till you get your general goal" he started as a kid in Indiana and he became one of the best to ever play this is why I chose this thematic statement. It is a biography telling the reader about Larry Birds life story. He begins playing high school basketball and starts to realize that he isnt that bad at it. He goes on to play college basketball for Indiana St. University. He talks about all the players hes played against in his career and 1992 dream team (USA Basketball Olypmpic team in 1992) possibly one of the best USA teams of all time if not the best. He then talks about his coaching carrer with the Indiana Pacers and some of the players he had on the team while he was coaching them. He talks about his coaching strategies. If you are a basketball fan i recommend you read it because it is a great biography about one of the best who ever played the game.
