The Million Dollar Putt
Dan Gutman
Paperback
(Hyperion Book CH, May 1, 2007)
Blind golfing, anyone? Edward Bogard – Bogie for short – may be blind, but he can learn just about anything he sets his mind to: riding a bike, parasailing, playing guitar. Even though many things come easily to him, he stunned when he hits at a driving range and finds he has the swing of a pro. But blind golfing is a team sport, and Bogie needs a coach. Enter Birdie, the kooky and mysterious girl next door. A bit of a loner, Birdie creates elaborate worlds in miniature in her basement, and has managed to make it to age twelve without learning to ride a bike. Then someone anonymously enters Bogie in a golf tournament—with a million dollar prize. If he can team up with Birdie to conquer the greens of Hawai’i, could she be the unlikely key to victory?
