Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Tough to .... Read
Review: This book was just pages and pages on details about 4 football games (plays called, players names) The actual story, about a boy who doesn't know if he wants to play or not because he's a tackle and not the quarterback encompassed about 10 pages of the book. The moral is a good one but it is just too difficult to get through 20 pages at a time about how much time is left or who ran which way. I know quite a bit about football and still wasn't interested.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good, But a Little confusing
Review: This is a good Matt Christopher book. I read Matt Christopher alot, I have read better books by Matt Christopher but this one's still good. It starts out with Boots Raymond. He and his friends, Duck and Bud are going out for football. Boots hopes to be a quarterback but when the coach assigns him to be a tackle Boots thinks about quitting. But in recieving letters from his brother in the Navy he learns about sticking with it.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Tough To Tackle
Review: Tough To tackle, by Matt Christopher, is one of his books about sports. This type of book is a realistic fiction book so it's not true but it can happen.

This story takes place on a football field and happens from the months of September and October. Matt Christopher helps us know the characters by telling us what the characters do and how they act. The major conflict is that a boy named Boots Raymond really wants to play quarterback for his team called the Apollos, but Coach Hayes said that he's too heavy to play quarterback so he puts him on right tackle. Will Boots ever improve on his position? Matt Christopher's writing style interest me because he likes to write about sports all the time.

This book would be great for 9-11 year old kids because this book is interesting and I would recommend it. I'd give this book a 4/5. A person that likes sports would like this book. So to find out if Boots will ever improve on his position, go get this book now at your local library.
