Ultimate Sports

Did you ever think a man could throw another for over 30 feet? This happened in Sports Stories by Lester Schulman. This book has several short stories about people in sports. My favorite one was titled You Can Look It Up. This story was about a player that could not fit in with his teammates. He didn't hit the ball well and each time he went up to bat he struck out which made the team angry. This story and more will keep you busy reading about sports. What I like about this book is that it tells about sports. I like sports also, and play baseball myself, so it was a perfect match for me. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 10 and recommend it to anyone that likes to play sports. I think the author's purpose for writing this book was to prove to people that they can do anything they want to if they just try their hardest.
