Mike Lupica writes some great sports books. Some like "Heat" are a little harder - 6th grade (ish), but he also writes some that are part of The Comeback Series that I use with my 4th graders. They're really good!
He is a sports writer for a New York paper. An old man once said, "There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living." ---------- Original Message ---------- From: wr...@centurytel.net To: "Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group"<mosaic@literacyworkshop.org> Subject: [MOSAIC] books on sports Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2011 12:31:21 -0400 I have reserved these books from my public library! You all might be interested in knowing (if you don't already) that Matt Christopher has written many, many books about all kinds of sports. I even found snowboarding. I haven't read any of his books, but I think he might be a good author to investigate. Jan Quoting Susan Joyce <seo...@earthlink.net>: > Check out "Million Dollar Kick" by Dan Gutman.
