I Know Bo.

I knew Bo when I attended Auburn University the same time he did. I was a grad student. He was one of the nicest people I have ever met. I met him when I was a graduate teaching assistant at the Child Study Center at Auburn. He was one of my lab students. The children really loved him. Sports Illustrated did their article on him with the children. I am glad to see a book out about him and wonder what he is up to now. If any one knows, please email me at counselor2heal@msn.com. Thanks, Kimberlee

Bo Jackson

We belive this book is really great. We gave it 4 stars because the beginning of the book could have told about Bo's childhood and how he got into sports. I love how the author Bill Gutman told how Bo was such a nice man and athletic person. He told very well how Bo did Track, Baseball, and Football all in one year. He described Bo's determination to sports and how he would play through the pain of his injuries. Bill Gutman explaned to us how much heart Bo had in all his sports. I think it was really amazing how Bo played 3 sports and had time for study. So in conclusion, We give this book 4 stars and we think if your athletic and no matter how old you are, We think you should read this book. So come and read this book and, see Bo run, see Bo hit and, see Bo sing
