Freddy’s story took me on an adventure! A friend and I put our heads together and came up with a most popular fall sport, American football; then Freddy, my character’s name emerged. Freddy the Football is a simple title, but it has an impactful meaning to both children and parents alike.

Intro to book

Freddy the Football is a book about the feelings and responses of Freddy in a children’s football game, where Freddy envisions himself as a part of just one team.
​
Throughout the game’s play, Freddy begins to realize that he’s needed by both teams, and not just by his best buddy, John.

As this realization dawns, he can see that by playing for both teams, no matter what the outcome - win or lose - choosing to play fair, respecting all team players, and gracious behavior makes a winner of them all!
