BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN is a fun, fast-paced sports book for middle grade readers. The intense sports action is sure to appeal to any youngster who loves sports, whether or not he/she typically enjoys reading. Like all Bo Rush books, BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN uses sports to celebrate diversity and inclusion, grapple with important life lessons, and reaffirm important values like courage, determination, and friendship.

Author Bo Rush urges all his young readers to, "Keep your dreams alive " In BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN, 11 year old Zach Fargo dreams that his collection of football bobbleheads comes to life and makes amazing, game-winning touchdowns. Zach has another big dream -- to win the Mighty Bowl, the youth football championship in Omaha, Nebraska. But challenges on and off the football field make that dream seem more and more impossible. Zach learns that facing those challenges is what winning is all about. With time running out in the biggest game of his life, Zach's only hope is to play like a bobblehead football hero

Zach's best friend is Chris Rivera. Chris is a gifted athlete and the best player on the team. But he has a secret that threatens to ruin the Lightning's football season at the worst possible time. Disaster is avoided when Zach shows Chris the true meaning of friendship. However, when Chris is sidelined, Zach has to step into a role he never expected -- the new leader of the Lightning.

While Zach and his Lightning teammates have their eyes on the championship, Coach Charlie MacDuffy knows that it is what's inside his young players that counts. In this high interest football book for kids, Coach Mac not only builds a winning football program, he helps shape fine young men by leading by example.

"You don't have to be a football fan to love BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN. You'll cheer on this team as they struggle to overcome life's obstacles." -- Lisa Bishop, president elect, California School Librarian Association.

Author Bo Rush wrote BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN for youngsters who love sports, but don't love to read. His goal is to spark a lifetime of reading. For the young sports fans who already enjoy reading, BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN will be a treasured addition to their book collections.

"BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN is a great, fast paced read for reluctant readers Perfect for my fourth grade sports enthusiasts." -- Julie Avirett, Language Arts teacher, Broomfield, Colorado.

Not only has Bo Rush created a cast of believable, engaging characters, he takes the reader into the middle of fast and furious football action. You'll feel like you're right there in the huddle with the Lightning players. As the season unfolds, each game is filled with thrilling twists and turns. And the unexpected obstacles faced by the boys off the football field are just as surprising and compelling.

BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN's incredible football action reaches a climax at the championship game. The amazing final play of that game -- the "Double Flea Flicker with Extra Sprinkles" -- ranks right up there with real-life fantastic finishes, like the Steelers' "Immaculate Reception," the Raiders' "Holy Roller," Stanford's "The Play" and Boston College's "Hail Flutie." You have to read it to believe it

This exciting sports book for kids has a reading lexile in the 600-700 range. BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN is ideal for third through sixth grade readers everywhere.

About the Author
As a boy, Bo Rush loved to read sports stories. In fact, he refused to read anything else. That singular passion resulted in proficient reading skills -- skills that transferred to other genres when Bo was in high school and college. For the last two decades, Bo has taught Language Arts in Colorado. Every year, Bo sees students who avoid reading. They start and quickly abandon books others are reading because of the level of difficulty or unappealing subject matter. That's why Bo wrote SOCCER BUGS, BOBBLEHEAD BEATDOWN, BASKETBALL BROTHER, OKLAHOMA SHAKE, and SOCCER SIDEKICKS -- for kids who love sports but don't love reading. He wants to spark that love of reading in youngsters, particularly those who are struggling to find the right book. Learn more about this great sports book series at borushbooks.com.
