Kobe Bryant was a man of many talents and up until his death, he was working on a multitude of different projects that fans were very excited about. Of course, Bryant was able to win himself an Oscar and was also helping to write children's books that contextualized sports in a way that everyone could understand.

"Introducing Geese Are Never Swans, one of my favorite novels created by my husband @kobebryant," Vanessa wrote. "Readers will meet his newest character Gus Bennett, an aspiring Olympic swimmer facing tough issues that he must overcome in order to win in the pool. This story perfectly highlights the healing nature that lies within sports."

If you're interested in buying the book, it will be available as of July 21st and will certainly be a story that helps those who need an extra push to accomplish their goals. 

It's clear that Kobe's legacy extends well beyond the basketball court.
