Janae works every day at her Granny's Strange Goods Superstore, selling lucky rabbits' feet and other useless junk. And every night, after closing up shop, she dominates the courts with her boys. An action-packed basketball series from author LJ Alonge set on the courts of Oakland, CA. Janae works every day at her Granny's Strange Goods Superstore, selling lucky rabbits' feet and other useless junk. And every night, after closing up shop, she dominates the courts with her boys. When the chance comes around to take her game to the next level, she knows she'll make the cut. It's all about skill-luck's got nothing to do with it. Right
LJ Alonge has played pick-up basketball in Oakland, Los Angeles, New York, Kenya, South Africa and Australia. Basketball's always helped him learn about his community, settle conflicts, and make friends from all walks of life. He's never intimidated by the guy wearing a headband and arm sleeve; those guys usually aren't very good. As a kid, he dreamed of dunking from the free throw line. Now, his favorite thing to do is make bank shots. Don't forget to call "bank!"
