My Take on the Book
If you or someone that you know are fans of football, this is the perfect book to share and read together. This book has a little bit of everything within it to intrigue and interest any football fan. Though geared toward kids, any fan can learn form the information and statistics shared in this book and with the full color amazing photos, you will be drawn into the action too. While I love watching football, I can't say that I am an expert at the intricacies of the players as well as other information as it relates to the game itself. After reading this I can say that I know so much more than when I started and you will too!
