| Publisher Description: Big John Kirchner and his buddies love playing tackle football every night in sub-zero temperatures. But John is worried sick about his big brother Mike. It is 1970, and the Vietnam War is raging. Mike is missing. On top of that a new kid moves into John's neighborhood and begins turning Big John's life upside down. Soon John and his pals are on a quest to help free a missing POW that involves finding a mysterious tomb at the local graveyard. A story of friendship, war, racial inequality and the lasting impression of the 1960's, Frozen Football is filled with pop references, battle scenes, ghostly television personalities, and a climax involving a legendary stuffed dog. A heartbreaking and sometimes hilarious novel, Frozen Football keeps the pages turning for teens and for those who remain young at heart. |
