Rating: Summary: Derek Jeter--A Role Model in Pinstripes Review: As the author of four books on young adolescents (including The Roller-Coaster Years and Parenting 911), I am thrilled to have a positive role model for children. Derek Jeter's behavior on and off the field can inspire young people, even those who are not Yankee fans. He is always respectful. (I understand he still calls Joe Torre, "Mr." Torre). When the rest of the team brawled with the Seattle Mariners, Jeter and his friend, Seattle shortstop, Alex Rodriquez, wisely stood aside. Jeter never blames others for his mistakes. His response is to work harder to improve. He is supportive of fellow players, even when they are struggling with their game. He has made a genuine commitment to children with his Turn 2 Foundation, donating both his time and resources. This book would make a wonderful gift for any young adolescent who dares to dream about the future.
Rating: Summary: A "must" for Derek Jeter fans and baseball enthusiasts. Review: Baseball fans will find this a thrilling survey of Derek Jeter's life, pairing exceptional often full-page color photos of Jeter in action on the field to accounts of his Yankees career. Major sports participants and writers present the articles which provide insider's views of the sports and Jeter's accomplishments. Derek Jeter: A Yankee For The New Millennium is highly recommended reading for Derek Jeter baseball fans.

Rating: Summary: Derek Jeter Review: I think that Derek Jeter is very good for little kids to look up to becuase he is a base ball player and that is one great job.You get to build your body more and more when your playing base ball its just great. I think that Derek Jeter is very good to look up to and a great roll motle and if i were a guy i would want to be just like him. he is a very interesting to know about someone famouse and someone great!
Rating: Summary: Great Photos Review: This book has great photos that are large and detailed (not a waste of space like some other books). They show a wide variety of situations, so if you are looking for particular things like I was (e.g., bat grip), it is very handy. The text is gathered from Derek's peers and provides a great glimpse of what being around him must be like. Great book, especially for kids or older fanatics!
