LeBron James signs his children’s book ‘I Promise’ for girl
While sitting on the bench, LeBron James is getting to know his supporters.
The 38-year-old star of the Los Angeles Lakers revealed the story of the time he autographed a copy of his children’s book I Promise for a young girl sporting his jersey number on Tuesday during his team’s game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
“Dear Parker, Nice meeting you! You’re a beautiful Young Black Queen! Don’t let nothing stop u from being whatever your mind and heart desires!” he began his Instagram caption.
“Just from our short encounter yesterday I know you’re destined for greatness and I will always love you!!! God bless you and best wishes to you ♾️🤎!” he continued.
The basketball star then signed his caption: “Sincerely Mr. LeBron James aka Bugs Bunny friend! 😉😁👑,” referring to his role in Space Jam 2.
James published his first children’s picture book, I Promise, in 2020 with the intention of inspiring young readers to “realize they can do anything,” as he said to Parents at the time.
“If we can give them confidence and hope for their future, that changes everything for them,” he added. “I hope this book can be that source of inspiration and that push they need to go for their dreams.”
Since suffering a right foot injury in the third quarter of the game against the Dallas Mavericks on February 26, James has been sitting on the bench.
The long-time basketball player is in the middle of a career-high when the injury occurs.
