A Story About Big Dreams, Family, and the Best Nights Ever
Somewhere between the Harlem Globetrotters and a pizza night, a boy found his obsession. It started with bouncing balls and big sounds — the rhythm of a dribble, the spectacle of a trick shot, the word slam dunk in a two-year-old's mouth. It grew into jerseys and chalk courts and a phrase he kept correcting his dad on: not pizza and basketball. Basketball and pizza. In that order. Always.
Basketball & Pizza is a picture book about a child who experiences the world through ritual, rhythm, and obsession — and a father who showed up for all of it. No lessons. No conflict neatly resolved. Just real moments, a chalk court, and pizza at the finish line.
Perfect for families who play together. For parents who take their child's passions seriously. For kids who already know: some things just have a right order.
