From NFL superstars Tiki and Ronde Barber, a story of teamwork and determination--in the classroom as well as on the field. The eighth-grade season couldn't be going better for the Barbers' team, the Hidden Valley Egales. Everything is off to a strong start--until one of the key players on the team is benched for academic probation. Without good grades there is no playing time. No exceptions. Ever. Will the team's hopes for the season be demolished, or can they find a way to help their teammate get his grades up? Fortunately for the Barber brothers, it turns out that the team that plays together can study together too.
My son loves the books written by the Barber twins! They are well written, fun to read, and he reads them over and over again.

My nephew loves to read and I wanted to get him some books that he could read over and over. I saw Ronde & Tiki Barber on a talk show talking about them writing an African American children's book, specifically for young boys. I ordered all their books----He Loves Them!

My 11 yr. old twin boys, who also play football, fought over who would read this book first. (They have other Barber books.) They realted to it and thoroughly enjoyed reading it. One of the twins hates to read but couldn't wait to start it.
