The Kid from Courage
Summary
When fifteen-year-old Bryan Berry, a promising junior tennis player, begins to train with Henry Johnson, people at the local club laugh and dismiss the partnership as a crazy idea. After all, Henry is nothing more than an old, washed-up, former teaching pro...isn't he? As it turns out, Bryan's new coach becomes a cherished friend and mentor who serves up memorable lessons about life as well as tennis. Come along on Bryan's amazing journey and find out what happens when The Kid from Courage competes against the best juniors in America at the Super National Championships.
