A fourth-string basketball player gets cut from the team but finds a new way to make his shots count; a selfish ping-pong enthusiast doesn't want his friend to improve at the game, so he practices alone-and gets a fitting comeuppance; a girl's spunky dog helps her cross the finish line and find new confidence. In these and six other stories, kids find unexpected challenges and rewards in sports. Includes authors' notes about each story and author biographies.
