Summary: The best.
Review: Derek Jeter The PRIDE Of The Yanks is the best book I have ever read. It is full of great discription. I LOVED IT!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: My Thoughts On This Book
Review: I really enjoyed reading this book. I would definately recommend it to anyone who is curious about Derek Jeter. It gave out a lot of new and interesting facts about him that I didn't know. Whenever I read a chapter, I thought that the book was so good that I had to keep on reading it.I am 11 and I do not think it was my age level though. It was a little confusing, but very interesting!

Summary: Old Gills Has really out done himself
Review: I think Mr. Gills is a master craftman who deserve another chance. He has only written this one measly little book, but I believe he's got a bright future ahead. He is a bit verbose, but his description of Derek's kneecaps is priceless. I think anyone under the age of 10 will love this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jeter Book Review
Review: I think that this book was great! It's got to be the best biography I've ever read. I'm a huge D fan, and I loved every second of this book, from cover to cover! If you like the Yankees even the least bit, you'd love this. It's totally new, and the pictures were awesome! It's a must-have for all Jeter fans! I know I'm getting it for keeps!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't Bother
Review: It was absolutely painful to get through this book.

I realize it was an unauthorized biography, but I really didn't need to spend money to read interviews with Derek's 4th grade teacher, snippets of Joe Torre's memoirs, or recaps of what other writers that Derek actually spoke to had to say.

The author seemed to know he didn't have enough material for a book so he just took up space, wasting tons of pages talking about (and repeating) utter nonsense, or things that had nothing whatsoever to do with Derek Jeter, the person.

Though it's meant more as a motivational book for kids, I thought "The Life You Imagine" provided much more information, which actually came from Derek himself. I'd buy that one if you're interested in learning about Derek Jeter.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't Bother
Review: The first 6 chapters are ok....but the information is very repetitive...from chpt 7 on is for hormonal little girls. The book does chronicle Derek's life but the author could not find enough material to fill the book...it repeats throught the book, a teenage girl would love this book, a person who is a baseball fan will find this painfull, a Jeter fan can get through it. Derek Jeter: A Yankee for the New Millennium is a much better book for baseball fans over the age of 17.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: For "Teenie-Boppers" not adults
