| | Synopsis
|
"Before he was a household name, Cassius Clay was a kid with struggles
like any other. Kwame Alexander and James Patterson join forces to
vividly depict his life up to age seventeen in both prose and verse,
including his childhood friends, struggles in school, the racism he
faced, and his discovery of boxing. Readers will learn about Cassius'
family and neighbors in Louisville, Kentucky, and how, after a thief
stole his bike, Cassius began training as an amateur boxer at age
twelve. Before long, he won his first Golden Gloves bout and began his
transformation into the unrivaled Muhammad Ali."—From publisher's
