Hoop Crazy!

Nick and Ned are cousins but about as different as two boys born on the same day can be. And they don't get a long. Nick cares mostly about sports, and basketball is his passion. Ned is crazy about bugs and lives in a national park, three hours' drive from the nearest basketball court. As far as Nick is concerned, Ned is a nerd. But when Nick and his pal Kia lose their teammates for the three-on-three hoop tournament they're entered in, they must quickly find a way to make Ned a part of the team. This turns out to be easier said than done. Eric Walters lives in Mississauga, Ontario, and spends as much time as possible visiting kids in classrooms all over the country.
