About this title

About the Author:

Josh Anderson lives and works in Los Angeles, and fits in his writing time when he's not occupied with his two rambunctious preschoolers. He and his wife love traveling, sports, reading and not-so-guiltily watching shows like 'The Bachelor.' 

He's currently working on a contemporary young adult novel, and an adult thriller set in the seamy underbelly of the motion picture industry.

From School Library Journal:

Gr 4-6-These titles offer histories of NBA teams, including information about changes within the franchise and well-known players. The lack of back matter limits the set's use for report writers and classrooms trying to learn about the elements of nonfiction. However, established fans will pore over the energetic texts. For example, readers can learn about the San Antonio Spurs's "Twin Towers," David Robinson and Tim Duncan, and how they worked together toward a championship. Color photos (most of them action shots) illustrate the pages, and the simple, large font texts could draw in reluctant readers. News for the teams is current through 2012. α(c) Copyright 2011.
