    Have you ever heard of Kobe Bryant? He used to be one of the most popular basketball players in the world in the US. He has a great number of fans around the world because he was really good at playing basketball. Many people are crazy about him. Sadly, he died in a helicopter (直升机) crash with his daughter Gigi on 26th, January 2020.

    Kobe once wrote a book "The Wizenard Series: Training Camping". The book is based on parts of Bryant's real-life experiences, especially when he played for the Los Angeles Lakers. Bryant said he didn't think he was going to be a writer during an interview. But that he often told stories to his daughters is one of the reasons why he wrote his own book. The book is about a youth basketball team and has five stories, with each focusing on the story of one character: Rain, Twig, Cash, Peno and Lab. All of the young kids on the team come from a poor neighborhood. No one thinks they can succeed. But things change after a new coach (教练) joins the team.

    During Bryant's life, he won many honors and he was the king of NBA. He had two different jersey numbers: 8 and 24 during his career. The number 24 means you need to work hard 24 hours a day to succeed. He was such a great player, as well as a very funny man. His good friend Michael Jordan said with tears, "When Kobe died, a part of my body died."
