Book Reviews of The Spirit in the Stick
Book Review: Good book, good lessons
Summary: 4 Stars
My son, who is 15 and loves lacrosse, read this book and wrote a paper about it for school. It was easy to read, has an interesting plot, and includes quite a bit of actual historical information (Trail of Tears, WWII, civil war, etc.). A reader will learn that discipline, hard work, and teamwork will get you far in lacrosse and in life. This book teaches a lot of important lessons for young players and people in general.
Summary of The Spirit in the Stick
Fourteen-year-old Robbie Jones receives a 200-year-old lacrosse stick, which has been passed down through several generations, from Hall-of-Famer Jimmy Lewis. He has no idea what he is about to learn from Lewis...or the stick.Book Subjects
