The first memoir for young readers by sports legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. At one time, Lew Alcindor was just another kid from New York City with all the usual problems: He struggled with fitting in, with pleasing a strict father, and with overcoming shyness that made him feel socially awkward. But with a talent for basketball, and an unmatched team of supporters, Lew Alcindor was able to transform and to become Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. From a childhood made difficult by racism and prejudice to a record-smashing career on the basketball court as an adult, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's life was packed with ""coaches"" who taught him right from wrong and led him on the path to greatness. His parents, coaches Jack Donahue and John Wooden, Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee, and many others played important roles in Abdul-Jabbar's life and sparked him to become an activist for social change and advancement. The inspiration from those around him, and his drive to find his own path in life, are highlighted in this personal and awe-inspiring journey. Written especially for young readers, Becoming Kareem chronicles how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar become the icon and legend he is today, both on and off the court.Binding Type: Hardcover

Not durable
Color: red
Although it holds about two cups of food or treats, my 40lb dog can bite down hard enough that you can no longer move the dispenser hole. It entertains her for hours but it could be a bit more durable for larger dogs or specify that it is for smaller pups

Durable and Resilient
Color: yellow/orange
I fill the dispenser with their normal Kibble food. It's my slow feeder and herding toy. Every morning the Mini Aussies look forward to taking turns pushing this dispenser around as the Kibble falls out. They never miss a Kibble! Often times they push it so hard it hits the kitchen cabinets and literally flys airborne dropping Kibble! This is extremely durable and resilient. Rarely needs to be washed. Easily hand wash when needed. Highly recommend. This is my 2d one purchased. The first one still works but after about one year of use I noticed the plastic thread to screw on top has been damaged. It still works but want to be prepared if it cannot be used safely anymore. Enjoy! The Aussies sure do!

Toy for Pup
Color: yellow/orange
The only toy that my dog will play with. It helps keep him busy while I'm cleaning. It is suitable for small dogs and safe for them. He twists and turns it around but the toy is still in good condition so the quality is great.
