Wild Card (Barber Game Time Books)

I loved this book.Wild Card is about the Tiki and Ronde Barber having 5 games remaining in their second year of Junior High.The team is having trouble after their kicker (Adam) ends up on probation for bad grades.The Twins help Adam bring up his grades and get back on the team.The book is great. I loved how the team showed determination to do great without their star kicker (Adam). This is their chance to make it to the playoffs and they will do whatever they can to prove they are the champions.Wild Card will make you want to read the whole series.

If your child lives and breathes football like my eight year old son, he or she will love this book and the entire series! It kept my son turning pages like crazy. It teaches kids to work hard, be honest, and never give up. It also emphasizes how anyone can achieve their dreams, no matter how big the dream or how small the child. Its messages are just what kids need and are delivered in a well written, exciting story. I highly recommend this series. All the books are Accelerated Readers as well, which is a great bonus.

My son is reading it and says it is a good book so far. He loves anything sports and it gets him to read.

My son hated reading. It was such a task to get him to read even with all the popular books among 3rd graders. He loves football so I tried these books and he has gone through 5 in the series so far.

Good reader for younger readers! My grandson loves all of Barber's book because he loves sports. I encourage him to read anything he likes (with parents approval) .

We love these books - Go Tiki and Ronde - we didn't want to put it down!

My nephew loves to read and I wanted to get him some books that he could read over and over. I saw Ronde & Tiki Barber on a talk show talking about them writing an African American children's book, specifically for young boys. I ordered all their books----He Loves Them!

My 11 yr. old twin boys, who also play football, fought over who would read this book first. (They have other Barber books.) They realted to it and thoroughly enjoyed reading it. One of the twins hates to read but couldn't wait to start it.
