This is a great book for pre-teen Cubbie fans! How can a person not like Mark Grace? Reading this book you will discover why it is so easy to like Mark Grace. Mark shows great sportsmanship, is a wonderful role model, and you will enjoy his sense of humor. Mark truly shows his love for baseball in this book. He is as much of America as baseball and apple pie!

I used this biographical book in conjunction with a baseball unit that I was teaching in my second grade classroom. Of course the initial appeal of the book to the students was the biography subject, Mark McGwire. The students were able to understand the text during a read aloud and enjoyed the photos. The book has an interesting layout and is a good read-aloud for 2nd or 3rd grade. As an educator I appreciated the book not only for the biographical information but also for the underlying message of the book. Mark McGwire touches on a variety of topics including losing your temper, needing to see a counselor, and trying your best even through times of adversity. I would recommend the book highly. Weeks after our baseball unit has concluded, Mark McGwire - Slugger is still a hot book in our reading center. The children are reading it over and over again.

Easy reading with interesting facts and biography on Mike Piazza.

The book tells you lots of facts that most people do not know about Omar Visquel,the BEST player on the Cleveland Indians team!The book tells about all the awards that Omar has won,like the Golden Glove award.

I loved the behind the scenes look at big time college basketball. I also learned a lot from Coach Drew about successful ways to raise children that have the potential to be college athletes. The book has a lot of value because of the messages in it. It's especially a great read for basketball fans.

A definate must have for those who love the underdog at tourney time. It's hard for me to devote continuous attention to a book, but I refused to put this one down, and that is an accomplishment. I could feel the excitement and goosebumps in the book's descriptions of "the shot" and stories of tourney time. It's a sense of relief that storeis like this do exist in a time when business seems to be overtaking the sports we love.
