Baby Baller — Caleb Alexander

Some make it out of the hood with a microphone, some with a football, and some in a casket! All he had was his football and a dream. They call him Running Back Baby. His mother, a nurse who stayed behind to help out during the evacuation, died in Katrina. His father, after losing everything in the storm, including his wife, has checked out of life and now lives on the mean streets of Houston. His best friend died in his arms on the football field. His girlfriend's brothers want him dead. His grandmother is just praying that he makes it out alive. Baby Baller is a story about faith, family, healing, and about never giving up on your dreams. Come and run with me through one of the most touching and heart warming stories you'll ever read!
