John Gusterson has had his days watching his favorite baseball team, but today, he doesn't just watch the team, he helps save the day. Read this epic short story and be intrigued!
When Lynne Ashdown, her new lover, and more than fifty Italian male cyclists departed Italy in June of 1990, no one had yet ventured into the Long-closed reaches of Eastern Europe since the falling of the Iron Curtain more than forty years before. They would be cycling almost a thousand miles from Verona, across Northern Italy, Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland to Warsaw, in just ten days. Ashdown hadn't realized she would be the only woman cycling with the fifty-four men. One American Woman Fifty Italian Men tells not only of a sweeping journey of adventure, romantic disaster, and cultural collision, but also of a revelation of Ashdown's identity, forged by her will in the constant pain of trying to keep up with the men who were stronger. This trip back in time shows the stark contrasts between the world she knew as an American and the world she saw in impoverished Eastern Europe. This true story, rich with images of the countries they cycled through, describes the warmth and the cycling lives of the Italians, as well as the lives of people who lived under communism for so long and the values that survive all governments. In One American Woman Fifty Italian Men, Ashdown conveys the aloneness of cycling over vast distances even in a spread-out pack, the growing pain and fatigue of each pedal-stroke, and the caring of the men for her and for each other. This journey draws us into a universal drama not just of cyclists, but also of hearts and possibilities.
Jessica is just a normal girl when all her dreams are washed away. she wishes that she could have her old life back. but then through all of the confusion and sadness she falls in love.
Kieran Matthews wants to be a pro skater. Skateboarding is his life and other people think he's crazy and that he doesn't even have a chance. Even with asthma and a developing sickness, Kieran still goes for it. He then meets Aden who also wants to become a pro skater. Aden has a secret and Kieran's time to fulfill his goal is running out. How far will these two boys go? For skateboarding?
A young man on a journey to reconnect with his first love and the obstacles he ecounters along the way!
These extreme sports defy logic and the people who practice them must be a little bit off.
Taking advantage of the Pennington School District's summer sports camp program, Zormna Clendar decides it is wise to make some distance between herself and Jennifer McLenna's parents, at least for the summer. However, she is not allowed to go alone. Jeff Streigle, A.K.A. Jafarr Zeldar, comes along to carry out his duty to protect the possible savior that he believes is a fulfillment of prophecy.
This is the story of two boys, two friends, two professional footballers. One day they discover they have feelings for each other that go beyond just friendship. Suddenly the boys find themselves having to make difficult decisions with life changing consequences. Together they embark on a tough journey against prejudice and discrimination. Can their affection for each other survive in the world of football?
This book is a work of fiction and, except in the case of geographic facts and references of football teams and tournaments, any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental
