In Pursuit Of The College Baseball Scholarship $21.8 Little Casey loves baseball. Even before the child was born, his father knew that the kid was going to be a baseball player and prepared a nursery theme of baby blue walls with baseball angels in the form of porcelain dolls, framed pictures, and the new Big Head poster of Cal Ripken Jr.; his Dad’s favorite Major League player on the wall.Two years later, Casey loves baseball and everyone realizes it. He knows exactly what to do with that little plastic bat and ball his father so anxiously waited to get for him. Every night, when Casey’s father comes home from work, it’s “Game Time!” They play ball in the living room, watch their favorite big league team on the big screen with surround sound for a better “learning experience,” with a side order of Baseball Tonight on ESPN. Finally, the two finish the night talking about baseball and dad hopefully believing that his little Casey will dream of making the big play or hitting the big home run; Casey at the plate…right?Parents, do you know what to do next? In Pursuit of the College Baseball Scholarship is a book of wisdom and insight on how to pursue a college baseball scholarship from the perspective of a coach who has been there and done it well. |

Parenting a Normal Child to A+ Grades $8.64 Parenting a Normal Child to A+ Grades provides instruction and inspiration to parents who wish to help their children achieve academic success and the benefits that accompany it, such as self respect; peer, school, and community recognition; and college scholarship offers. This book is a “how-we-did it” biography/autobiography about how a boy who would rather be playing baseball than going to school was able to achieve an A+ average in junior high school and high school. The book is divided into four sections: a biographical section that describes how the author’s son’s success validates the approach; a how-we-did-it section that explains how the family’s educational goals were accomplished; a get-involved section that relates how the author’s experience as a member of the local board of education provided insight into the importance of the parent’s role in a child’s education; and a how-to section that illustrates the process of parenting your kids to good grades in a guidebook format for easy reference. Author Andrew F. Nazzaro is inspired by people who succeed through commitment and determination. He is a retired information technology executive in both the private and public sectors. He grew up in Poughkeepsie, New York, and now lives both in Malta, New York and Phoenix, Arizona.Publisher’s website: http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/ParentingANormalChildToA+Grades.html |
