There are two kinds of inventiveness at work in this magical tale of old Scotsman Mully MacTavish who learns of golf from the angels and goes on to teach mankind the joy of this sport.Author Chaz Henry has created 3-D figures to bring alive a tale that takes the reader from earth to heaven and back again as Mully discovers and refines the game (complete with ball and hole) so that humanity can savor its challenges and mysteries.The mystery is the second part of the charm in this book, for golf is shown to be "more than a game, much more than a walk" as people discover the beauties of nature outside themselves and the mysteries of their own hearts as they revel in the sport.Would that this book had been written when my children first learned golf years ago! But now its pleasures await a new generation.It would be a joy to see this book adapted into a film version or even a television series to enthrall young and old alike!
Special and Unique

Anyone who loves the game of golf knew it had to be true -- golf came from the heavens. This book is an excellent light reading storybook. An endearing tale of the early beginnings of golf on earth. A truly unique gift for the young and young at heart on your list. A beautiful book with awesome graphics and an introduction to Old Mully MacTavish, a character I hope we hear more from. I would recommend this book to anyone.
Great Gift Book

This book is beautifully written and illustrated. I don't know how the graphics are done but they look three dimensional. It's a story of how the angels played the game of golf on the earth and accidentally leave a club which leads to the creation of golf on earth. I've bought copies for both of my grandchildren and they love it. I recommend it.
