Michael always
goes to the park with his brothers to
play basketball. His only problem is
that he is the shortest person on the
team. Mark is the tallest boy on the
court, with long arms that would knock
Michael's ball away and win the game.
One day after the game, Michael comes
home very upset. He is ready to give
up his dream of being a basketball
player because he feels he is too
short. He asks his mother how he can
grow taller. Find out the secret his
mother tells him.
