Take your pick of any of Matt Christopher’s compelling biographies, which feature some of the biggest figures in sports (e.g. Tiger Woods, Jennifer Capriati and Lance Armstrong). This is a great way to get sports junkies hooked on reading, as Christopher’s books are very easy and compelling to read. I became interested in him after reading his takes on two of my favorite athletes, John Elway and Terrell Davis (can you tell I am a Denver Bronco fan?)
