Book Synopsis



Do you consider yourself a fan of professional football?


Do you love learning stories about the athletes who play on the gridiron?


Have you ever heard where the "Hail Mary" play got its name?

The sport of football is a battle in many ways, all carried out on a field of grass and dirt, where players battle for every inch of the ground. Making it to the professional ranks requires those players to be at the top of their game, physically and mentally. Sometimes, though, there are extraordinary circumstances that demand more of these individuals.


Inspirational Football Stories for Young Readers contains 12 real-life stories from decades of professional football history books that focus on players, coaches, and even some owners. In these pages, you'll discover individuals from the football world doing everything they can and more to honor themselves, their families, and even their country.


Some of the stories in this book include:


  • Roger Staubach putting his football career on pause.
  • Jimmy Graham moving from basketball to football at the last possible moment.
  • The Manning family's rise to greatness.
  • John Madden giving everything to the game.

The stories in this book will definitely inspire any football fan, whether it's a kid learning how to throw the ball properly, or the adult who loves watching every Sunday. This book will also show how football players have a mentality that prevents them from giving up on the game, even when pain or injury says otherwise.


Whoever decides to read this book is bound to see how special this sport and its players can be. The stories will show how a game can help a city heal from disaster, or how a person can succeed no matter how many times they are rejected. This book will warm the heart of any football fan, young and old.
