(3) 4-6 Twelve-year-old footballer Charlie is a savant at analyzing game strategy and players--a talent he uses as his team's benchwarmer. When his best friend Anna introduces Charlie to her grandfather, owner of a new Los Angeles NFL team, Charlie's talent is tapped to help the struggling franchise. The concept is a football kid's fantasy, while the intergenerational relationship adds depth and heart.
