Summary

Marcus is no ordinary 12-year-old—at six feet tall, he towers over his classmates, but instead of feeling proud, he feels out of place. Shy, clumsy, and often teased for his height, Marcus struggles to fit in. But everything changes when a middle school coach sees potential in him and offers to train him in basketball after school. With each practice, Marcus begins to find not just his skills, but his confidence.

As Marcus transforms from the shy kid to the star player, he learns that being different is his greatest strength. He excels in school, becomes a leader on his team, and makes friends who love him for who he truly is. From tutoring his teammates to enjoying fishing, swimming, and choir singing, Marcus shows everyone that confidence comes from embracing who you are. "Standing Tall" is an inspiring journey of friendship, self-love, and discovering the hero within.
