I have never been much of a sports fan, but growing up in the nineties, even someone like me was a fan of Michael Jordan. Despite not watching him actually play, I had his posters decorating my room and I watched Space Jam who knows how many times. He's that influential. So I was interested to read this book, and I came out happy that I did.It's another short read that has a good amount of substance. You get a bite-sized look at his history as a basketball player in a way that isn't uninteresting, and then you're taught what you can learn from his story. The biggest lesson you can learn is that you have to fail many times in order to succeed. In a society that wants instant satisfaction, that's a huge lesson that people have to learn. Even if you aren't much of an MJ fan, it's still worth checking out.
