Great piece of work on Ozark life and basketball history !
What a wonderful book! Leon Combs is a great storyteller. Living in the Ozarks and near the Bradleyville area most all of my life I could really visualize the story. The characters and situations were like telling a part of my own family and hometown history. The play by play of the basketball games was like being there in that place and time. I would love to see it on the big screen! I'm ready for the next book Mr. Combs.

Combs Has A Winner
This author not only reveals the spirit of the sport, his colorful, descriptive narrative takes you into the very hearts of the players. Nostalgic, well-written story about a winning team, interwoven with games and statistics, makes this book a winner. Can't wait for the movie. It will happen.

BRADLEYVILLE BASKETBALL, THE HICKS FROM THE STICKS
I just read this wonderful book last weekend. My parents, Harlan and Betty House, were two of Bradleyville basketball's most enthusiastic followers. Both are mentioned in the book for a small portion of their contributions to the Bradleyville basketball program. The Bradleyville teams, those that were champions and those that were not, were made up of very special people--people who were willing to use all their god-given talents as best they could. With hard work they overcame their limited personal, family, and school resources. Bradleyville coaches were the best at enhancing the skills of their players and making a team out of very different individuals. The whole community was energized by the hard work and success of those winning teams. They were proud of the victories and the way their teams achieved those victories--by being great sportsmen. This book captures the spirit of the people, the players, the coaches, the community and the era. This story of our own Missouri "Hoosiers" will be enjoyed by anyone who enjoys an uplifting story about those who can prevail over long odds by hard work and fair play.

Reflective Planning, Teaching and Evaluation By Judy Eby
The author describes how reflective teachers think and provides specific strategies for meeting the needs of students with cultural, linguistic and learning differences. Among the areas covered are: diagnosis of student needs, motivational techniques, cooperative learning, daily and long-range planning strategies, making the environment safe for children, the integration of computer technology into the classroom, how to "bridge the gap" for diverse students who may have different backgrounds or schema; developing self-esteem, and evaluation of student progress. The author knows what the problems are-and addresses them succinctly. This book is a must for all teachers- not just for beginners!!
