This Lemur Blue children's book is a fun, educational, and engaging story centered on tennis, personal growth, and self-confidence.
Blue is a ring-tailed lemur and lives in New York City with his mom and dad. They enjoy watching professional tennis on TV. Blue decides that he would like to learn to play tennis too. Blue's mom and dad provide lessons with Coach Eagleton, a colossal American Bald Eagle tennis pro.
The Wonderful Adventure begins. Coach takes Blue through the basics of tennis and then they tackle some of the strategies and skills of competitive tennis. Blue conquers many obstacles: a size disadvantage, having to compete against an octopus with multiple tennis rackets, and a fierce lion.
Blue overcomes self-doubt and fear of failure through these matches. He takes to heart the motivational pep talks from coach, mom, and dad. Blue, with the help of the supporting characters, learns to replace his fears and doubts with faith and trust in himself. He achieves his goals and then in turn, reaches out to help others learn the game of tennis while providing tips for a healthy life.
These life lessons provide the young reader inspiration and exposure to the concept of both inclusion and respect of one's teachers, colleagues, and competitors in life.
The real-life collaboration with sports education giant, SportEdTV, a global provider of free, unlimited, online sports instruction from world-class coaches and experts has the unique offering of embedded links in both the printed and eBook to streaming tennis lessons for the skills mentioned in the book.
So, join Blue as Coach's advice and Blue's perseverance help him become Champion Tennis Player of the Universe.
