My name is Brittany Bristol, but you can call me Brit for short. Or you can just call me Short, because everyone always reminds me that I am too small and too short to play the game of giants, that is, basketball. But you know what? I dont care what other people say about me. I dont care that Ive been cut, put down, and chased out of every level of competitive basketball that Ive ever gone out for. I dont worry that the guy of my dreams, Brian, wont even look my way. Im going to be all right. Im the one in control of my fate. Im the one who dreams. I can see it now: Brittany Bristol, the starting point guard for a womens college basketball team. The ball is in my hands, all eyes are on me, our team needs two points for a national championship, and seven seconds remain. Then I wake up. My dream is over. Im still the only junior on a junior varsity team filled with freshman and sophomores, and Brian barely realizes that I walk the earth. But I wont quit, I cant, my dream has only just begun Log on to www.av2books.com, and enter the unique book code found on page 2 of this book to unlock an extra dimension to your AV2 Audio Chapter Book.
