Former professional QB turned award-winning author Eli Cranor reminds readers that sports should be FUN in this laugh-out-loud story about a late-blooming sports fanatic who just can't wait to "grow up." A must-read for young athletes ages 8-13!When Jeff Bernstein arrives at the Jacksonville Jocks' first 7th grade football practice, he fully expects to be the starting QB. There's just one problem: the other boys are HUGE! Some of them even have armpit hair! Before Jeff can figure out what's happened, Coach Max-the Jocks' crazy new coach-kicks him off the team and makes him the mascot. Heartbroken, Jeff reluctantly puts on the musty "Jock" uniform, but then he starts to GROW! And grow, until Jeff's the biggest-hairiest-Jock in 7th grade! But will his newfound power be enough to save his teammates from becoming beefed-up Coach Max clones? Fans of Mike Lupica and Tim Green will enjoy this hilarious, middle grade sports story with a superhero twist. Drawing from his own career, as well as years spent writing a nationally-syndicated sports column, Cranor's penned the perfect book for parents hoping to get their young athletes reading again!
