With only 38 pages, lots of pictures and captions, and even some sidebars, this is an extremely readable book about the Manning family. I am big fans of the Manning brothers, and actually remember Archie Manning playing in the NFL (ouch) so I was interested in how the Mannings were raised, what kind of home life they had, etc. This is a good pick for any middle school student, and they should actually be able to finish this in one sitting.

This is a good book if you are a sports fan. If you fallow the NFL you know that the Mannins play a big role in football. They are the two best QB's in the NFL. It was getting to know how they were brought up and how they went through college and high school. There are a lot of interesting facts that i would have never known if i would not have read it.

A kid's book, but very well written and had a lot of interesting facts about the Manning family, plus some fantastic pics as well. I'm a huge Peyton Manning fan, and it was neat to learn about his early years, plus a little bit about his family as well. Not very detailed, just kind of skimmed the surface, but was definitely worth the few minutes it took to read.

This is a fantastic book about the First Family of Football, the Mannings. A quick and easy read that skimmed the surface of the careers of Archie Manning and his sons, Peyton and Eli. While it didn't go into depth, there were many interesting facts about all three men and the rest of the Manning family.
