Tiger, The Real Story by Steve Helling

Tiger-The Real StoryBorn to a father who described him as the “chosen one” and a mother who called him the “universal child,” Tiger Woods was groomed for the fame and influence that his parents believed was his destiny. At age twenty, he made his debut in a Nike commercial. “Hello, world,” he said. “Are you ready for me?”

The world was ready. For the next thirteen years, Tiger nearly lived up to his parents’ outsized expectations. He conquered the world of golf, settled down with a beautiful Swedish model, and started a family. His net worth approached one billion dollars.

Everything was going according to plan—until the scandal hit.

Steve Helling has long covered Tiger Woods’s career, and here he draws on intimate sources— many speaking out for the first time—to create a never-before-seen portrait of the golfer.

When Daddy Plays Golf by Patricia Rullo

Named the best child’s golf souvenir

Most men golfers, whether traveling out of town on business or golfing at their local course, look to bring a small gift back home to their children. While pro shops and golf stores are stocked with an excellent selection of clubs, balls, souvenir tee shirts, hats, mugs, key chains and other logo kitsch’s – research proves that these items are not as greatly valued by young children as are books. When Daddy Plays Golf satisfies that missing gift and souvenir option. Lightweight and inexpensive, this colorful and thoughtful book can easily be stashed in a suitcase, briefcase or carry-bag.

Beautifully illustrated by Valerie Bouthyette, this 32 page book not only gives children a peek into the game of golf, but more importantly helps them to understand that even though daddy is a grownup, he still likes to play outside. The book shows daddy receiving help with his swing and helping others in return. It illustrates daddy having fun riding in the golf cart, enjoying the fresh air, munching tasty snacks and persevering even when his golf ball gets lost. The book concludes with daddy stopping at the pro shop with the intent to buy more golf balls, but also leaves with a gift for the child he is missing.

Upon having this book read aloud, children come away with an appreciation for the similarities between themselves and their parent and aids in the understanding of why daddy likes to play golf. Now all dads can delight their children with a remembrance that says “Even though I am playing golf, I still think about you.”
