Game Changers / Mike Lupica / 207 pages

Mike Lupica never disappoints his readers.  Once again, he has produced a book sure to captivate young readers and inspire them to be true friends, great sportsmen/women, and all round admirable individuals.  Ben McBain dreams of becoming QB for the Rams.  His size is a handicap he has overcome with practice, skill, determination, and team commitment.  He embodies the "There is I in team" concept.  When the position of QB goes to the coach's son, Ben supports the move, and even helps Shawn O'Brien (my nephew's name) overcome some serious shortcomings.  This first book in a new series leaves readers content and charged up to do the right thing.

"Being a friend is more important than winning a game."
