THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD by Joe

This book put ood in good. I've read it about a biazillion times and loved it every single time. It catches me and I love reading it. I read it whenever that I'm feeling bad and when I'm done, I usually feel better, yet tired (it's a 189 page book and I read it at night). It gives a thorogh (yet easy enough so it's not boring) descirption of one of the best Notre Dame football coach/players in NCAA history. "Get Jiggy wit' Knute Rockne TODAY!"

Knute Rocke Young Athlete

The reason I like this book is because when you read it, it feels like you're really with them. It's interesting so much that you could just read it over. I also liked reading it because it's a biography, and I LOVE biographies. This is one of the best books I read. I hope you read it!
