With the summer reading theme being about sports, and with the Summer Olympics around the corner here is a list of Sports themed books to get you in the sporting spirit.
Tumbling by Caela Carter (Gymnastics)
Mexican White Boy by Matt de la Pena (Baseball)
Rush for the Gold by John Feinstein (Swimming)
Dairy Queen by Catherine Gilbert Murdoch (Football)
Boy 21 by Matthew Quick (Basketball)
Game On by Monica Seles (Tennis)
Running Dream by Wendelin Van Draanen (Running)
Of course this list is far from extensive, and I need to give a shout out to two of my favorite Sports writers, Christ Crutcher and Miranda Kennealy. If you pick up a book by these authors, they will be about sports or sports adjacent! Soon I'll post some non-fiction sports books.
I'll see you @ the library!
