This review is from: NFL Monday Night Football Club: Heavy Artillery - Book #4: I Was Junior Seau (Paperback)

I liked it when they kept calling her "Hillery Hillery, Heavy Artillery!" I would recommend it for 5th-6th graders or for anyone that loves football or has a football club. Don't pass it up. GET IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

a girl becoming a huge NFL player may not seem like the right kind of book for you, but take my word for it, it's just as good (if not better ) than the others. the gender-switching gives it an extra zing!

1.0 out of 5 stars Sell-out by Gordon Korman, June 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: NFL Monday Night Football Club: Heavy Artillery - Book #4: I Was Junior Seau (Paperback)

How a great children's author like Gordon Korman could sell out like this is beyond me. Basically just an ad for Monday Night Football and NFL paraphenalia. The football players protrayed in this book should be nominated for sainthood- they take time to read all of their fanmail and are all great friends with each other. Gordon Korman is a very talented author, and why he didn't use a pseudonym for this tripe is beyond me. Gordon, how could you?
