Too-Tall Foyle "Finds His Game"
A fun, encouraging story for kids ages 3-8 and their parents
Too-Tall Foyle is a book series filled with lessons on resilience, perseverance and
strength, based on the real story of a tall, young Adonal who hadn’t yet discovered
basketball.
The first book, Too-Tall Foyle Finds His Game, will show kids and adults it’s never too late
to figure out their own “game”, no matter what others may say. After all, there’s no point
in judging a fish by its ability to climb a tree. It will inspire people to follow their dreams
and believe in themselves, one page at a time.
Read it with your children and help them find their “thing”!

Adonal Foyle
Former NBA Player Turned Author And Political Activist
Adonal grew up in Saint Vincent & the Grenadines, a stunning but impoverished chain of
islands in the Eastern Caribbean. Taller than most of his friends, he always felt there was
something different about him, like he didn’t quite fit in.
Until one day, at the age of 15, he discovered basketball. It was the biggest turning point
in his life. Suddenly, he had found his thing – and he was amazing at it.
This key moment inspired him to write an encouraging book aimed at children who
haven’t yet realized what they’re good at, Too Tall Foyle Finds His Game.
The seed for helping other people discover and develop their potential had been sowed in
his mind and his story had just begun.
The Author's Mindset
“Giving back and helping to empower and move the next generation forward is one of my
highest ideals and one of the things I always strive to achieve.”
“Adversity creates an opportunity for growth.”
“When you make a few mistakes, it hurts, it’s glaring. But I can’t control it. I can only
continue to play hard. That’s what I do best. Other people may not have confidence, but
as for me, I know what I can do. I’ll be the first one to tell you when I mess up, when
things don’t go right.”
