LONG ARM QAURTER BACK Matt Christopher

The first game they lost by only one point. The second game they lost by a person almost tackling someone who was running for a touchdown. At the last game the long arm quarter back threw the ball all the way to the touch down field when his teammate  ran over there and caught the foot ball by a foot.

My scariest  part of the book was when the person ran to catch the football and I thought he wasent going to catch it but when he did I was relieved.

I would recommend this book for both boys and girls who are ages 9-10.

I would rate this book ****.
