This is a book in which I think would be good for students. It would show how you are just not handed something in life and that you have to work for it. Students, especially younger students, would benefit from it. It may send them a message on how they should do well in school early and they could be successful.
Teammates could be used for child life specialists and future teachhers.
Diane J.Wood: I also read this book and included it in my annotated bibliography portfololio. It is a great book about being a team player and relying on others for support. No team stands alone. It exemplifies brotherhood and working together, also the love and care provided by family so crucial in staying grounded in professional sports.
