“Building Bridges” is best when read by a parent and child. Kind of like how it was written and illustrated by a dad and his son. It’s for everyone ages 8 to 80 and in many ways, it’s a parent’s book as much as it is a children’s book. You’ll see. Eleven-year-old, Jesse isn’t the most athletic of kids. Actually, Jesse doesn’t have an athletic bone in his undersized body. Unlike Jesse, football is life to Jesse’s dad. He has a wall of trophies that he dusts off before his friends come over to watch football. Jesse doesn’t have any sports trophies. Jesse does have an incredibly high level of intelligence, an unrelenting spirit and a set of values that Jesse and a few new friends help his dad begin to see and learn to appreciate. Jesse isn’t great at sports. He isn’t like his dad; Jesse is like Jesse and that’s just fine because everyone is great at something.
