Camp might be just what Julia needs
Who eats Cheetos with chopsticks? Avery and Becca, my “Chinese Sisters,” that’s who. We’re not really sisters — we were just adopted from the same orphanage. And we’re nothing alike. They sing Chinese love songs on the bus to summer camp, and I pretend like I don’t know them. Hardcover | Kindle book

The party was about to start and I could hardly put this book down to wrap it for my sons tween friend! I enjoy an exciting football game but I am not at all into football info or trivia. However, flipping through this book was really interesting. My son gave his friend the book and I heard directly from the mom that it was a huge hit. Party boy and his brother and friends are enjoying every page. The book is a sturdy hardback book with beautiful pictures and illustrations. Anyone remotely interested in football would LOVE to have this book as a timeless recording of how football has evolved over the years. The book covers helmets, uniforms, balls, etc. It even looks at how the players sizes have evolved. A truly cool book!

We all know that in football a touchdown is four points. No, not so. How about five? No, not so. It’s now six points, but it wasn’t always. Over the years there have been lots of changes in the rules, starting in 1878 when that touchdown went up to five points. Over the decades, right up to the that Tuck Rule in 2013, football has seen all kinds of changes and not just in the rule department. Everything from the very ball players have used to the stadiums they play in have undergone some form of change. Way back in 1892, William (Pudge) Heffelfinger made a whole $500 for playing football. Do you know what your favorite player makes? Not chump change like Pudge made.

There are plenty of betcha-didn’t-know facts in this book. For example, if you take a look at an NFL football you’ll see the signature of the NFL commissioner on the ball. On the other side is “THE DUKE.” Hmmmm, now that is an odd one, but if you are an NFL history buff, you’d know that it’s in “honor of New York Giants owner Wellington (Duke) Mara.” This book is so full of fun facts and trivia anyone reading it will be surprised at what they don’t know. A lot of players had nicknames as well. White Shoes, Ickey, Whizzer, and A.D. are just a few of them. Recognize any of these players? If you do, you don’t need to read this book!

Starting with the “Basics,” this book starts from day one of football and runs, passes, and snaps its way to the present-day game. Just imagine a bunch of guys sitting around a table with Walter Camp making up the rules. Fast forward to fantasy football and you’ll realize just how big and popular the game really is. In between there are the players, the equipment, those rules (again), technology, records, positions, and soooo much more!

Are you ready for some football?????? Yes, it is that time of year again and I am so pumped up, as are my kids. Football: Then to WOW! is a great book to introduce a child to the game of football. This book covers it all from the basics, to the players, to the strategy to the fan experience and so much more!! It takes you on a time line of how the game has evolved over the years! It is such a perfect book for the coffee table in your sports room or the gathering place of sports fans. I really loved seeing all the Super Bowl tickets from 1967 to 2014. You will be amazed in the how much money one ticket was back in the day compared to now!!! I just think this book is AMAZING!! 5 stars!

If you enjoy sport history, this book will be one you will want to read. It shows the changes in the equipment used in playing football, the differences in the rules today, the venues, and how the stats are used. The book contains many illustrations and photographs. One was the evolution of the shoulder pads which I found quite interesting . Of course it details the huge discrepancy in the salaries of years ago and today. You will be amazed at the salaries in the 1940's.

So much information for the reader who loves football. This could be an excellent gift for a football fan in your family.

I got this book for my 9 yr old son for Christmas. He was absolutely overjoyed to open it. He is going to be using it for his history of football independent study at school. Plus, the prove is much nicer than at our B&B store.

I bought this book for my 9-year old son who is getting into football. He's read all the books on football that are available at the county library, so when I stumbled on this book, I knew he would love it.
