Tiger Woods, Golf Superstar

Tiger Woods' beaming smile is becoming a
national symbol of achievement in America. Tiger is our hero, and he is our
children's hero as well. Tiger's rise to glory is charted here as he advances
from a toddler sitting in a high chair watching his father hit golf balls to
his enormous smile as he received the famous green jacket at the Master's
Tournament.
This book describes Tiger's best moments in a style suitable for young
children aged five to eight. He is lauded as a renaissance man, balancing great
golf with great grades. His parents support him through success and failure
alike, and have nothing but pride in their outstanding son. When Tiger received
his scholarship to Stanford, he told them that he wanted to play golf and study
accounting. Fortunately for American golf, his game became more and more time
consuming, and he decided to turn professional.
Tiger is a great example to children, especially because he is so young
himself. His great attitude shines on each page, and leaves the reader with the
desire to achieve. Tiger Woods, Golf Superstar is a great way to
inspire children to achieve-in sports or in school.
