Not only does my son absolutely love this book, but he's suddenly interested in bowling! The story is fun, the pictures cool, and the binding will last forever!!! I think more fun easy readers like this will really make kids interested in reading. I can't recommend it enough.

Irma the Flying Bowling Ball Review

Irma the Flying Bowling Ball

My kids like this book, but really, it's for me. A bowling ball with a name... and a personality... and aspirations. I love that! Not only that... she achieves her goals!!!! Good grief, if a bowling ball can do it, then, darn it, so can I!!!!
It's even better if you live in Wisconsin where kids learn to bowl as soon as they learn to walk and adults only stop bowling when they're dead.

The Million Dollar Strike (Million Dollar Series) Review

The Million Dollar Strike (Million Dollar Series)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Dan Gutman strikes again with one of his million dollar books, The Million Dollar Strike. This book is different from the others. This book is a mystery book. Ouchie and Squishy have to get the Bowl-A-Rama looking better.
They try their hardest to fix up the place. Mr. Z even helps by paying some of his money. He uses it from his so-called "bank". But, is someone trying to destroy the place? Ouchie and Squishy are on a case to find out. Can you solve this mystery?
I thought this book was awesome. I give it five stars. I wish it would have lasted longer. While I was reading this book I felt like I was one of the characters.

Ouchie and Squishy love bowling, even if it isn't the coolest sport. And their favorite place to bowl is Bowl-A-Rama. Squishy especially likes it because it's the perfect setting for a gory horror movie. Then again, he tends to imagine zombies and killer clowns around every corner. When the city council wants to condemn the decrepit bowling alley, Ouchie and Squishy are devastated. Then the boys meet Gazebo Zamboni, the rich, reclusive, totally nutty owner of Bowl-A-Rama. Despite Mr. Z's insistence that the world is ending soon-a ghost told him so-Ouchie and Squishy manage to convince Mr. Z to keep Bowl-A-Rama open. He allows the boys to restore the old alley, and even sponsors a million dollar strike contest to bring in customers. Just when things start looking up, the most nightmarish scenarios of Squishy's overactive imagination come to life. Someone-or something-wants Bowl-A-Rama's doors to close. Forever.

Bowling in Action (Sports in Action) Review

I am a bronze level bowling coach and always looking for books to help beginners to under stand the basics of the game. This is a very good book for new bowlers with good illistrations, it is also short and to the point. For the price you cannot beat this book.
