I would recommend this book to anybody who likes football. This is a story of how a student manager of a high school football team becomes head coach, when the real coach get's in a car accident. At the beginning all the players weren't sure if they were going to listen to the student manager as the coach. this how he got the players to belive in him and how he belived in himself.

This story is awsome

The Game Plan was a good book because it goes to show that no matter how old you are, or how tall you are you can do anything you want to do if you put your mind to it.The game plan I think is a five star book because of all the details the author gives you and all the steps that the person takes to go the distance.

excellent

At Barton High school Bean Hatton would watch the head coach run all the plays. Then one day the coach got in a accident, so Bean had to take over the team. He had to lead them to the championship. I think it was a good book for a young reader.

Game Plan Scores With Me

I am an 8th grade student at Washington Middle School and a sports fanatic. I love football, and Game Plan really kept my attention. My mom had to take the book away from me so I would go to sleep.I liked the book because the main character, Beano Hatton, went from being a "nobody" to a "hero." It showed me what believing in yourself and having a positive attitude can do. The author, Thomas J. Dygard, has written lots of sports books, and as exciting as Game Plan was to read, I am for sure going to read more of his books.I would highly recommend this book to anybody who likes football, and also to those who like adventure stories. Game Plan really hits "pay dirt!"
