Go Long! (Barber Game Time Books)

The boys enter their second year of Junior High ready for their second season playing for football team, Hidden Valley Eagles. When their beloved coach needs to leave school the team is reluctant to accept the new coach, Sam Wheeler. Tiki, knowing Mr. Wheeler because he had him as a science teacher the prior year is ready to give him a chance. Coach Wheeler would do video sessions with the team which enabled them to see how other teams played which eventually helped them win and gain team acceptance.I think kids would like this book because it teaches them that you can still win even if you have a few loses.

Bought this so that some reluctant readers in my school would have one more book that they'd like and they did, in fact, like it! Much thanks for writing an engaging story that isn't so long it scares kids who aren't sure they like to read.

Tiki Barber has a great idea for continuing these books. Great for elementary level students. He definitely needs a new editor. We found many typos throughout this book and when he was talking about a game score, the scores didn't add up which the students found!!! The students did however enjoy reading the book and we made a game out of looking for the mistakes!!

My son hated reading. It was such a task to get him to read even with all the popular books among 3rd graders. He loves football so I tried these books and he has gone through 5 in the series so far.

To help a young man to read more confidently

Easy read and keeps my son interested! He wants the entire set.

He enjoyed this. I'm working on find more books like this that are tailored to little boys and will keep him interested.

Perfect for the kids I read to at our local school!
