Rivals

I read the book the rivals by Tim Green. The  main character is Josh he plays baseball with his friends in cooperstown and is trying to win a championship for his team but suffers from an injury and misses an important game and his team wins it for him and is trying to come back for the big game and is facing a team that there coach is a MLB player and might be called an unfair game because of it. Josh’s best friend Benji also plays for his team and they are the stars on josh’s team.

I liked how Tim described each play by play and didn't miss a detail. He also got every detail right about Cooperstown.

I would recommend this to any age that likes baseball and intensity. I would rate this 3.5 stars out of 4

Dunk Under Pressure

Book Review #1 by Neil Patel

The book I am reading is, “Dunk under Pressure” by Rich Wallace and the genre for this book is sports and is a long book.
The plot is when Dunk and his team are trying to win the championship for the first time and the characters are Dunk, Fiorelli, and etc. Dunk really wants to win all of his games. He loses some games but the championship is intense. Dunk is a really good player and reminds me of me.
I like how this book is about basketball and teaches on how to win games. This book connects to my life as a basketball player and Dunk is a basketball player. Also I connect this book to other basketball movies and videos etc.
I recommend this book to anyone who likes basketball between the ages of 10-16. I rate this book, 3 stars because it is a good book and is about a true player.
I think you should read this book because it is a great story about a life of a true basketball player.
