A great gift for kids April 13, 1999
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Greg Brown has started a wonderful series, I've bought several for our grandson, who definitely needs to learn to be a better sport!! It isn't just the specific athlete, but the lessons they teach in these books, that make them attractive to me. But it is the athlete on the cover that makes the boy want to read them. Also, these books are something that "Dad", a sports fan, actually enjoys reading to son. I highly recommend any book in this series.

I thought this book was worth reading. This book is about a guy that plays football for the Dallas Cowboys. This book is about his whole life,from when he was a little kid and until now. I would recommend this book for others to read because you can relate his life to your life. I liked it and i hope you will read it and like it too.
Great Advice for All March 11, 1998

I think this is a great book for all to read. It is an especially good book for all children that look up to Mr. Aikman. By recounting events in his childhood, he teaches us all that, no matter what obstacles are put in our path, we can achieve greatness. Not by becoming famous; but, by becoming a great human being. This book also shows adults how, by taking and active role in the lives of our children, we can greatly influence the kind of human being they will one day become.
Fantastic, everyone young & old should read, great lesson January 14, 1998

I have purchased 10+ copies of this book. Whenever someone has a baby, they get this book as part of the baby gift. The lesson we all learn is the greatest gift anyone can receive from any literature and I am an avid reader. In fact, I will be purchasing another copy for a friend who has a brother in his mid-thirties who is austitic, but can read children's books. We should all live by Mr. Aikman's words.
Excellent book on Troy's life, to be a football star. September 28, 1997
Excellent book for all young athletes wanting to be a supper star like there hero. The ups and downs Troy had as he was growing up and especially what his mother told him about being a good sport. He learned behavior is one thing you could change and he would never bad-mouth another player. I bought the book for my grandson who is a big Troy Aikman fan. My grandson loves playing sports and originaly lived in California and has move to Oklahoma, he is 10 years old.
