Although Father's Day is over, I still had to claim this as a "Father's Day" gift when it was delivered the other day.  Big Book Of Who: Football  is a great book for not only kids (it is from Sports Illustrated Kids) but it was a great read for daddies too!
Talk about a great bonding opportunity.

This book says it has " the 101 stars every fan needs to know" so that means it isn't a short book either!  

The contents include:
Champions

Personalities

Record Breakers

Super Scorers

Yardage Kings

This book is very informative.
I love how the format is... 

They start it with a question... 

Then, the paragraph answering it...
They also include photo's of the person they are discussing and then the "Super Stat" number is highlighted in a big circle!

Example - 

Who was named Super Bowl MVP the most times?
(Super Stat ---  122 Super Bowl Passes thrown by ________ without an interception; all other Super Bowl quarterbacks to have thrown 50 or more passes have at least one interception.) 

The answer?  Joe Montana.
They then include a paragraph with informative information about him.

Marc enjoyed reading it...   and I have enjoyed using it for "trivia" with the boys!!

It was pretty neat reading the questions and seeing how many they could get answered correctly...

This is a great book.
Hard back.  Full of great action shots.  

Full of fun information.

It was great for Marc... great for the boys...

I say this would be great for the "man cave" or even for the bathroom.

(Hey, just being honest here...  Remember, I have 3 tweens/teens, a husband and a brother that just graduated college!)
