The book is great because Micheal shot the ball over the tallest guy and made a slam dunk. Salt in his shoes is a very good book for kids.

Salt in his shoes is A very good book.Michael Jordan shoot the ball over the tall people because his mom put salt in his shoes.Michael Jordan was the best basketball player in the court.But when I first saw this book I didn't know that people can jump that high but when I saw the book I thought it was cool Michael Jordan is fifty year old.

Salt in his shoes is cool. At the end he was tall. I thought it was going to be boring at first but it turned out to be a good book.I think you should read this book.But I don't know if salt will really make you tall.And Michael Jordan is fifty years old.

I would like to say that this is one of michael jordan's best books and i wanted to know if michael jordan would come to Adam's Jr High School to talk about how we can join sports and get better grades. We would suggest that you try to contact Michael Jordan and his organization through his official Web site: http://www.sportscareers.sportsline.com/-- The MY HERO Library Staff
