i think the book was great.it talked about his childhood ,and all the rest of his life.i think that matt christopher should be the author of the year!i think the best book is on the court with michael jordan though. and if you you like basketball it will be the best book you ever read.if you like baseball then you would like at the plate with mo vaughn and at theplate with greg maddux. and finnally if you like football you would likethe joe montania book rettin by matt christopher. thats why i like mattchristopher so much...............

A Great Childrens Book
Fishy Wishes, is written by Judy Delton. Judy is a great writter for children, I read these books to my little son and he loves these books. Now, when I want to calm down the children, I grab one of these books, andit calms the children, so now I just don't have to scream, or run behindthe kids I just have to say, "I am going to read Pee Wee Scouts!Anyone whants to join me?" And the kids sit on the floor and calmdown. I also love these books, and the way Judy Delton writes and how AlanTiegreen illustrates. It is a wonderful book, when you whant to calm youryonger kids, you just have to grab these books, there so wonderful, and thekids love it, and I do too! ... Read more

Fun in the Sun
This is #29 in the popular Pee Wee Scouts series.School has just let out for the summer and all the Pee Wees are looking forward to having fun.At their first meeting during vacation their leader, Miss Peters, announces to the delight of nearly everyone, that the Scouts will be attempting to earn a swimming badge over the summer.Molly, afraid to get even her head wet, is panicked, too embarrassed to tell even her best friend Mary Beth.Soon her excuses for staying out of the water wear thin, and when she at last confesses her inability to swim, the other children react sympathetically and find ways to help.When testing time comes at wheelchair-bound Jody's new pool, Molly conquers her fear, earns her badge, and afterward confesses all to her parents.The fast-moving plot is ideal for early readers. Simple pen and ink illustrations add a nice touch. ... Read more

Undercover Tailback
I really liked this book becuase I like mysteries. My favorite part is when Nolen finds out who was in the coach's oficce. I also like it when they mix up their signals.

Undercover Tailback
The book Undercover Tailback by Matt Christopher was great. I like it because it was about football. First my favorite characters was Parker Nolan because he is cool and a lot like me. My favorite part is when Nolan finds out some ones looked in the coach's playbook, also the other team always beating them and Parker thought the person who looked in the book might be from the other team. To conclude, I would recommend this to any one who likes football.

Kudzu's Kids
First of all, I didn't like the book very much!I wouldn't recommend it for 5th graders, but I would for younger kids.I think younger kids would like it because they tend to be more gullible, and this book is sort of corny.There are a few parts that I like.One of them is when Spike is looking at the thief in the coach's office.The other one is when the Kudzus come back to beat the Panthers in a clutch game. ...
