About the Author

Tim Green, for many years a star defensive end with the Atlanta Falcons, is a man of many talents. He's the author of such gripping books for adults as the New York Times bestselling The Dark Side of the Game and American Outrage. Tim graduated covaledictorian from Syracuse University and was a first-round draft pick. He later earned his law degree with honors, and he has also worked as an NFL commentator for FOX Sports and NPR.

His first book for young readers, Football Genius, inspired in part by his players and his own kids, became a New York Times bestseller and was followed by Football Hero, Football Champ, The Big Time, and Deep Zone. He drew on his experiences playing and coaching Little League for Rivals and Pinch Hit and two more New York Times bestsellers: Baseball Great and Best of the Best.

Bestselling author Jon Scieszka called Tim Green's Unstoppable, a book about a boy's struggle with cancer that debuted at #2 on the New York Times bestseller list, "Absolutely heroic. And something every guy should read."

Tim Green lives with his wife, Illyssa, and their five children in upstate New York.

Reviews

"Could not put it down. It is so solid, and real, and true. Absolutely heroic. And something every guy should read." -- Jon Scieszka, bestselling author and National Ambassador for Young People's Literature emeritus

"I don't know anyone -- kid or adult -- who won't root heart and soul for Harrison. Unstoppable means you can't put this book down!" -- bestselling author Gordon Korman

"The star running back on his junior high school football team is diagnosed with cancer, teaching him the real meaning of bravery and determination." -- Los Angeles Times

With a sharp intensity fueled by both wrenching events and the main character's white-hot core of rage, Green sends an abused foster kid blasting his way through daunting challenges on and off the football field. Harrison's ferocious struggles with inner demons and physical obstacles make absorbing reading. -- Booklist
