CMart

This book is about different people's experiences with sports. The stories range from having difficulties playing the sport to how they got treated on the team. There were also stories about how they found confidence in themselves. The authors purpose was to entertain the reader with stories of other peoples experiences. The author did this by having different stories about various sports to keep us hooked and excited for a new story.
