5.0 out of 5 stars Super Book...I'm Still Shocked!, October 15, 2005
By N. Bilmes "bookaholic" (Vernon, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This book is far better than the normal Matt Christopher offering, probably because Christopher is dead and Glenn Stout, the writer, did an excellent job.

The book traces Schilling from an infant to his triumphant outing in the 2004 World Series. It details his growth from a blue-haired multi-earring jerk into a responsible, charity-giving superstar. The candidness of the book was surprising in that it's a biography for children, and it makes the book very interesting.

I recommend this highly, for grown-ups and children. Especially anyone that hates the Yankees!
