Book Reviews of Heart of a Champion
Book Review: Carl Deuker is Brilliant
Summary: 5 Stars
Imagine how boring life would be if you had no siblings, no father and no friends. This is how Seth's life was until he found Jimmy. Seth saw Jimmy playing baseball with his dad at the park one day and quickly got involved. He started playing with them every weekend and then eventually everyday. Before they started playing together, Seth had never really gotten into playing baseball. Their dream was for Seth to play second base and bat second and for Jimmy to play shortstop and bat third. At first Seth wasn't good enough to play on the same team as Jimmy, but then they both made the high school team. See how their friendship takes them trough wild and crazy times.
The author Carl Deuker does a great job with HEART OF A CHAMPION . This is a great book for baseball fans and many other people. It really shows how a friendship develops between two kids who both have problems. This is a fictional story that is very good. Other Carl deuker novels that are also good are RUNNER, ON THE DEVIL'S COURT, and PAINTING THE BLACK. I have read all of these book and they are all excellent. My favorite is RUNNER. I highly recommend that you read HEART OF A CHAMPION.
