4-6Champion Sports Story series.
Each sports-themed novel sets its protagonist on a life-lesson journey of hard work, camaraderie, and friendship. Conflicts surface both on the field (Matty learns to play goalie in Matty) and off (in Tony's, Tony must quit football to help support his family). Each easy-to-read, character-driven, predictable story is enhanced with engaging sports-action details. Review covers these Champion Sports Story titles: Rounding Third, Heading Home, Tony's Last Touchdown, Matty in the Goal, Todd Goes for the Goal, and Batting Ninth.
