Trade Review
Spring 2017 Kids' Indie Next List -- "Inspired Recommendations for Kids from Indie Booksellers" "The volume reads like a series of locker- room pep talks by a coach with stories to tell and advice to give..." —Horn Book “A stirring collection of 52 motivational poems-as-rules…” —Publishers Weekly "The advice never feels heavy-handed, and the author's voice shines through... This will appeal to fans of Alexander's previous middle-grade novels as well as young sports fans." —Kirkus “Alexander uses sports as a metaphor for life in this earnest gathering of personal reminiscences.” —Booklist —
