Feeling great, Micheal went down to the park and demanded to play with the older boys. When he went to talk to his dad about it, his dad told him that height wasn't what was important. One day, he measured himself but was very upset when he realized he hadn't grown an inch. he waited for months and practiced very hard. She told him that she would put salt in his shoes and that if they both prayed each night, it would help them grow taller.Michael decided to not go play with the older boys for awhile while he was waiting to grow taller and practiced around the house. When he went home he told his mother how he was feeling and she comforted him by telling him that she had a cure to help him grow taller. When he did have the rare opportunity to play, he often couldn't shoot well because everyone was so much taller than him. Michael always wanted to play with them but he was much younger and smaller so he was only allowed to play when one of the older boys wasn't there.
