Touchdown!

Hey, if Dan Marino was at first and goal, wouldn't a touchdown be sure to follow. My kids loved this book. It was extremely entertaining, and they thought the pictures were awesome. First & Goal is a different type of children's sports book in that, instead of just being a synopsis of his fine career, it teaches a more underlying lesson of giving it (anything) your all. The writing is quite good in that a nice, easy, descriptive language is used, making it entertaining for children of all ages. This is a good book, and you children are sure to love as much as mine did.
