When Nick, Kia and their classmates begin a letter-writing campaign to try to persuade the Toronto Raptors to visit their school, they discover the team's school program has already been set for the year. But the kids do not give up easily, and their efforts become increasingly dramatic until Nick finally comes up with an idea that the Raptors will be unable to ignore. For the tenth installment of this bestselling series, Eric Walters has once again teamed up with retired NBA star Jerome Williams and his brother Johnnie Williams III to create another exciting chapter in the lives of Nick and Kia.

Eric Walters began writing in 1993 as a way to entice his grade five students into becoming more interested in reading and writing. At the end of the year, one student suggested that he try to have his story published. Since that first creation, Eric’s novels have all become best-sellers and have won over eighty awards. Often his stories incorporate themes that reflect his background in education and social work and his commitment to humanitarian and social-justice issues. He is a tireless presenter, speaking to over 70,000 students per year in schools across the country. Eric lives in Mississauga, Ontario, with his wife and three children.
