  Every parent dreams of seeing their young athlete thrive—but what happens when performance pressure starts stealing their love of the game? 
  When traditional coaching methods failed to address his own child's competition anxiety, Emmanuel Drake knew there had to be a better way. Drawing from cutting-edge sports psychology research, he developed an effective system that transforms how young athletes think, compete, and grow—both on and off the field. 
  The Mental Toughness Playbook bridges the gap between complex psychological concepts and practical application for developing minds. Through simple yet powerful techniques, including mindfulness, visualization, and strategic self-talk, young athletes learn to conquer pregame nerves, bounce back from setbacks, and build unshakeable resilience that extends far beyond the scoreboard. 
  This isn't about pushing kids harder—it's about equipping them with the mental tools to embrace challenges, view mistakes as stepping stones, and maintain their passion for sports while reaching their full potential. Each strategy can be implemented in just 5-10 minutes and seamlessly integrates with existing training routines. 
  Whether your child is just starting out or competing at elite levels, these proven methods will help them develop the resilient mindset and emotional awareness that creates champions in sport and life.

  Muggsy - My Life from a Kid in...

  Growing up, Muggsy Bogues was always told he should do something else, anything besides basketball. He never acknowledged his many doubters except to prove them spectacularly wrong. Twenty years after receiving his first basketball as a toddler, he stood proud—at five-foot-three—as the starting point guard for the Charlotte Hornets in the NBA. From the East Baltimore playground courts where he earned his nickname by muggin' opponents for possession of the ball to Dunbar High School where he excelled alongside future NBA players, Bogues set the tone in his early years for the great heights he'd reach professionally. In this new autobiography, Bogues delves deep into his life and career, reflecting on legendary battles with Michael Jordan, John Stockton, and other generational stars of ’80s and ’90s hoops. He shares far-ranging anecdotes from playoff runs in Charlotte, filming Space Jam, and even watching a young Steph Curry grow up. Conversational and clear-sighted, this is a story of uncompromising vision and fleet-footed determination during a golden era for the NBA.

  The Ghosts of NASCAR - The...

  "A rollicking ride back to the roots of stock car racing in the Midwest." —Journal of American Culture 
   
   
   
  Named by BookAuthority one of the 22 Best Motorsport eBooks of All Time 
   
   
   
  Chosen by the American Auto Racing Writers and Broadcasters Association as the second best motorsport book published in 2013 
   
   
   
  Who won the first Daytona 500? Fans still debate whether it was midwestern champion Johnny Beauchamp, declared the victor at the finish line, or longtime NASCAR driver Lee Petty, declared the official winner a few days after the race. Author John Havick interviewed scores of people, analyzed film of the race, and pored over newspaper accounts of the event. He uses this information and his deep knowledge of the sport as it worked then to determine what probably happened. But he also tells a much bigger story: the story of how Johnny Beauchamp—and his Harlan, Iowa, compatriots, Dale Swanson and Tiny Lund—ended up in Florida driving in the 1959 Daytona race. 
   
   
   
  The Ghosts of NASCAR details how the Harlan Boys turned to racing cars to have fun and to escape the limited opportunities for poor boys in rural southwestern Iowa. As auto racing became more popular in the 1950s, Swanson, Lund, and Beauchamp battled dozens of rivals and came to dominate the sport in the Midwest. By the later part of the decade, the three men were ready to take on the competition in the South's growing NASCAR circuit. One of the top mechanics of the day, Swanson literally wrote the book on race cars at Chevrolet's clandestine racing shop in Atlanta, Georgia, while Beauchamp and Lund proved themselves worthy competitors. It all came to a head on the brand-new Daytona track in 1959.
