Publisher Description:

Now children and beginning tennis players can hone their skills and mind their manners on the court with the help of Bouncy and Fuzzy.

Bouncy and Fuzzy love to play tennis and know that proper groundstrokes are important to a beginner's tennis game. Together they illustrate the correct form for forehand, backhand, and volley shots. They detail the right way to serve and maintain control of the game.

To teach game strategy, Bouncy and Fuzzy outline zones of the court, target areas, and tactics even the very young player can use. To insure good sportsmanship, they list twelve pointers on courtesy and respect for other players. For trivia fans, Bouncy and Fuzzy have assembled statistics for such greats as Chris Evert-Lloyd, Martina Navratilova, and Jimmy Connors.
