these sports series are great.
Wish they would make them like 2 chapters longer or introduce the next level up for the kids who aren't quite ready for the thicker chapter books

Teaches kids about good sportmanship

If your child loves sports this a great book. A little too short for my taste for the price you pay, but a great way of teaching your kids about good sportsmanship. Would love to see these books being offered as a collection.

It's a chapter book - which makes him (as a six year old) - feel like he's reading like the bigger kids

My son loves football! He has been more into non-fiction books, but we bought this for him for Christmas and he's asked to read it frequently. It's a chapter book - which makes him (as a six year old) - feel like he's reading like the bigger kids, but it's manageable to finish before bed in about 20 minutes. Perfect and great story that teaches lessons useful for both on and off the field!

Great book for 8yo

My 8yo loves this book! It's a fantastic story and easy to read. We especially love that the main character has trouble taking his time with things, that seems to be our biggest issue lately. Planning to buy more books from this series.
