The Blind side by Michael Lewis

This is the story of a boy named Michael Oher, a son of drug addict of a mom, and in which his father his dead. Having close to 15 brothers and sisters from different fathers, his mom does not have to money to feed them, and therefore having to go long whiles without it. Only because of a friends dad, bid mike, Michael Oher is allowed t ogo to a christian school, which is mostly all white. Going from public school to public school before, Michael only had F's and D's on his report card, but he did have one bright spot in his resume..a great basketball player..but mostly a great football player. Only problem..his grades weren't good enough to play. One day, leigh Anne Tuohy saw him on the streets and decided to pick him up and allow him to stay in her house. Already having 2 of her own kids with her husbadn sean, Michael fit right in. The family got a tutor for Michael in order to get his grades u pin able for him t obe allowed to play football in highschool and college. By the 11th grade, many colleges had interest in him and his grades were improving rapidly. In the end, he went to ole Miss for college and was a first round pick in the NFL draft for the Ravens. This is a great story and I would reccomend it to anyone who has at least a small interest in football and in the mood for heart warming story.
