fun to read and informative
This book is great not only for Michelle Wie fans but also for anyone interested in learning more about the sport of golf.

Excellent golf read,

This review is from: Michelle Wie: The Making of a Champion (Paperback)
I brought this paperback to the beach, and what an interesting read! I learned so much more about Michelle Wie, plus several things about the game of golf itself that I hadn't known, despite playing for 35 years. Smartly written and informative. Would highly recommend.

Good Golf Resource for Young People,

This review is from: Michelle Wie: The Making of a Champion (Paperback)
Geared towards teens, this biography is easy to read and educational. Besides telling the life-so-far story of a fine young athlete, it includes general information about golf so that a reader who has heard Michelle Wie's name but isn't familier with the sport could follow her through a tournament with a better understanding.
Jennifer Mario has a nice light touch, as evidenced in her existing blog, and doesn't try to overplay Wie's still-forming career. |
