Reviews
"The story of James's perseverance to overcome prejudice rings true." -- School Library Journal "Set in the 1950s, this inspiring picture book stars an African American boy whose love of golf helps him rise above the racial prejudice that would keep him off the links." -- Publishers Weekly "Miller and Lucas gracefully light up an obscure corner of sports history with this tale of a young African American finding his way around a racial barrier." -- Kirkus Reviews "Crisply written by William Miller... [the] premise is certainly credible, and is made even stronger when he frames it with an introduction and epilogue that describe the plight, and the subsequent advances, of black golfers in the last 100 years. The lessons of perseverance and pragmatism come through clearly and are nicely underscored by Cedric Lucas's impressionistic pastel-and-colored-pencil illustrations, which tell the story simply." -- The New York Times Notable Books for a Global Society, International Reading Association (IRA) Choices, Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC), "The story of James's perseverance to overcome prejudice rings true." -- School Library Journal "Set in the 1950s, this inspiring picture book stars an African American boy whose love of golf helps him rise above the racial prejudice that would keep him off the links." -- Publishers Weekly "Miller and Lucas gracefully light up an obscure corner of sports history with this tale of a young African American finding his way around a racial barrier." -- Kirkus Reviews "Crisply written by William Miller. . .
