The Underdogs by Mike Lupica

The book I read is called The Underdogs by Mike Lupica. It is about a 12 year old boy who wants to get a team together for football that the town cut from the budget this year. I chose this book because I love sports and and football in general.
Joe Tyler is a young boy who is a star running back for the football team and this year the town cut the football team.So then he and his dad got a sponsor from New Balence shoes to supply the uniforms and cleats for the team.Then Joe Tyler had to go around school and look for players he had 12 just enough.They would play for the league championship and win it.
Two things I liked about the book was it was to do with sports and it was written by my favorite author, Mike Lupica. Two thing I didn't like was it was kind of a sad book and it had a lot of ups and downs. I recommend this book to anybody above the ages of 12 or 13.I would recommend it to a friend.Sports people would love to read this book.
