Book Reviews of Satchel Paige: Don't Look Back

Book Review: A Story to Inspire the Delinquent Tween or Teenage Boy
Summary: 5 Stars

Absolutely PERFECT book to teach your classroom or your children to dream big and to never let anyone hold you back. In the book Satchel steals something as a young boy and gets sent to boarding school. He talks about how he took the opportunity to get his life together and to never be held back again by the bad behaviors that he learned from his childhood. Many young boys often turn to theft drugs or violence when their parents aren't really there for them, but Satchel is a great example of turning your life around. This book is awe-inspiring to the young boy who might desperately need to change his life around.
