(4) K-3 Football Heroes Making a Difference series. Beginning with career anecdotes and brief personal histories, these books then highlight the athletes' impressive on-field statistics and finish with their off-field charity work (e.g., "Troy also likes helping soldiers who have served in America's wars"). The laudatory volumes are well intentioned but information-sparse. Plenty of photographs will appease fans. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Football Heroes Making a Difference titles: Mark Sanchez, Peyton Manning, and Troy Polamalu.
