Top Prospect
Written by: Paul Volponi
If you ask me what I love most, the answer would be football. Hands down. Not the whole game --the running, blocking, and tackling parts. Those things are all right. I'm talking about playing quarterback.
I get so excited for this time of the year, when my football team is gearing up for the new season, all the hopes and anticipation of "This is going to be our year!" Top Prospect embodies that energy. The heart and guts of this story is about a middle-school aged boy, Travis, who's first love is playing quarterback. Travis can only hope he will also grow up to be a Gator and play Florida football, just like his older brother. With a handshake promise from the Gator coach, it's looking like that might just happen.
While this novel is about football and Travis and his love for the game, Paul Volponi also touches on the other side of sports: the promises, scholarships, the secret handshakes, and injury recovery. What are players willing to do to stay healthy and keep their starting position? What are coaches willing to promise to capture the next player of the year? If you love sports as much as I do, pick up this book and any of the other many books written by Paul Volponi. I guarantee you won't be able to put them down!
