HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, June 1, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Briley & Baxter Publications is pleased to announce the third book in the On The Right Path (OTRP) series, co-written by former NBA Coach, Brett Gunning, and award-winning author, Stacy Padula, and illustrated by Maddy Moore. It will be available on June 7, 2022, via Amazon, and the hardback and paperback copies are already in the #1 and #2 bestselling spots in their genre!

The goal of the OTRP book series is to teach valuable life lessons through basketball. Book Three follows Shai on his third day of basketball camp with his friends Jayden,

Jordan, and Jasmine. At camp, he learns basketball skills, makes new friends and joins the other kids as they learn life-lessons, such as the importance of eating healthy and growing strong. Just like the other On The Right Path books, this is sure to become a beloved story for parents and children alike.

“We created the On The Right Path book series to introduce children to the six life-skill pillars that support a healthy life,” said Gunning. “The life-skill pillars are loving others, being unselfish, staying healthy & strong, showing respect, showing forgiveness, and having fun.”

On The Right Path: Book One and Book Two were awarded with the #1 New Release on Amazon in their genre after launching and received significant media coverage - https://youtu.be/dl8BhT69d7Y.
