Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Football may be just a game, but it can change Charlie's life forever!
Â
This adventurous novel portrays a historical perceptive of life in the early 1900s, and a story line depicting how two friends encounter physical, and emotional intimidation directed at them by a group of rowdy boys. When Charlie Spagnuolo attempts to save his friend, Benny, from a close encounter with the school bully both boys end up in the principal's office. Determined to stay out of trouble, they shake on a truce--a game of backyard football, and if Charlie's team wins, the physical taunting and boastful older boys agree to stop bullying them. However, it looks as though Charlie and his outmatched and undersized team need a miracle to win.
Â
Discover if Charlie and Benny, and the Maroon Knights have what it takes to overcome Turk's physical taunting and boastful gang of terror!
Â
Adults with families will find the story not only interesting and heartwarming, but also a valuable educational read. Young readers learn of the importance of respect, sportsmanship, and family when facing life's challenges. Bullying in schools, and on-line has reached an all-time level of urgency. Children, parents, and school personnel need to recognize, understand consequences, and become better equipped for effectively preventing bullying. According to the National Center for Youth Violence Prevention, bullying too often becomes an inevitable part of schoolyard culture.Â
Â
However, the consequences are serious and sometimes results in lost life. The personal costs can reverberate throughout one's lifespan - affecting not only victims and perpetrators, but also their families, friends, and co-workers. The costs of bullying affect families, schools, law enforcement agencies, health care providers, and social service agencies.
