Pick a Sport!!
The Power and the Glory–Jonathan Wilson
Even if you are not a soccer fan, you have surely been seeing articles surrounding the World Cup coming up this summer and how expensive the tickets are. I certainly cannot comment on that specific topic exept to say that I would not go to it unless I had a grandson playing in a game!! But the book featured above has been praised for its comprehensive coverage of the history of the World Cup. In case you might ask yourself “Why the big deal over the World Cup?”, just read this book. Or, you could gift the book to a friend who might be a soccer (football in most of the world) fan.
The Running Ground–Nicholas Thompson
The best way to understand what Nicholas Thompson is trying to say about running is to play this utube video. To him, running was both a family affair and a life-altering experience. If you and any members of your family run together, you will want to buy this book. Click on the link below:

On Her Game–Christine Brennan
Experts say that the remarkable story of Caitlin Clark and her remarkable basketball ability have changed, not only women’s basketball, but women’s sports in general. Almost everyone has heard of Clark. Christine Brennan conducted hours of interviews and extensive research to cover all the aspects of Clark’s journey to fame and the effects her success has had on women’s basketball. A nice gift to anyone who is aspiring to be at the top of their sport.
