This is so great, Mike. I see lots of parallels to my own experience with sports as a kid and my kids’ experiences now. Love that this evolved into a whole book! And it’s another kick for me to work on something that keeps rolling around in my brain (and should be on paper!)

Thanks! It’s kind of funny how it’s a lot different with my second child. I think he took after me in the sports department. It’s been a little tougher for him, because it seems like sports are such a huge thing for so many 4th grade boys, and he’s just not interested. I might need to write a follow up essay…
