The book I read was called Only the Strong Survive, which was written by, Larry Platt. This book was a biography on one of basketballs best and brightest stars Allen Iverson. He explains to you about his life, his dreams, and his experiences both good and bad. "Only the Strong Survive" is a quote from Allen Iverson on his personal view on his own life, its no wonder basketball is such an ease for him.
This book is if not the best book I've ever read it has to be in the top five; it explains to the reader every possible detail right to the point. It creates a picture of the scene perfectly from the harsh streets of the ghetto, the drug dealing, and the home boys hanging around the corner, to the NBA arenas jam packed with screaming fans chanting his name. This book also shows a whole lot of dedication the author spent 2 years with Allen Iverson getting as much information out of him as possible, He"d then go towards friends and family members for even more details. Since Allen Iverson's career is just blossoming there is still more to be written but the author does a great job to leave readers guessing what the future holds in store for him. A championship ring or a one way trip back to where he came from, the rough streets of Bad News Newport in Virginia.
I chose option number five since I feel I"m a pretty good artist and I feel I can illustrate my views better than I can write them on a piece of paper, Mostly also since I feel like I can put the most effort in to this project while still enjoying to do it. .
