Unstoppable

I like this book Unstoppable because The book is short and has a lot of cliffhangers a little bit of a summary of the book is a boy named harrison who plays football gets bone cancer and has to overcome a lot of challenges.
One reason for my opinion is on chapter 40 the ending has a cliffhanger In the book where the main character named Harrison and at the end of the chapter You wanted to talk to his dad whose nickname is coach “coach I want to talk with you”.Another reason for my opinion is on chapter 35 is only one page long,Pages 76-77.
One more reason is there a hundred chapters which shows the chapters are short and the book is short,you can find that in the table of contents.
Overall I like this book and I would recommend this book to whoever likes to read for short periods of time.

Running, catching, passing, and trucking it all happens in this book. After being removed from his family Harrison moved in with his Godparents. But he wanted to fit in at his new school. So he joined the football team but developed bone cancer and lost his leg. His knee was removed. He kept on working and working at last he could start running again!

This book is good for 4-5th graders. First, it has some harder vocabulary than some chapter books and has a longer text than some books. If you are a sports fan, than you would love this book. It has football most of the pages, also it has good football terminology. Some pages are so good they jump out at you! They use good descriptive words to get me interested. Also this book has mixed emotions that make me fell what the reader is feeling. Read this book and all you will say is WOW!

"Believe in the incredible, and you can achieve the impossible."
-Jeffrey Keith, Founder of the Center for Survivorship

Football players are a special breed of warrior. From the first hit to the last play of their careers, they learn to develop and maintain an invisible force field of toughness that dares any competitor to break through. When the opponent is a life-threatening disease, the warrior is faced with a new challenge and a new set of downs or choices. In Tim Green's newest offering UNSTOPPABLE, a young football warrior meets this type of dilemma head on. With the help and guidance of a loving foster family and the tough love and training of an Army major, thirteen year-old Harrison learns what it means to be not only a warrior but a survivor.

The eighth grade is supposed to be a kid's grand time, filled with school, family, activities, video games, and maybe the discovery of young love. As a foster child floating through the court system, Harrison encounters some difficult, gut-bending, and scary situations that would bring a grown man to his knees, begging for the end. But this kid continues to get back up and go forward. In spite of enduring some unimaginable terrors and sadness, he perseveres. No family, no home, no security, no future, but Harrison keeps his chin high regardless of the turmoil that makes up his life. Then something good happens to Harrison.

Harrison wants a family to play football more than anything else in the world. Just when his world seems most unbearable, family and football appear together and magically change everything for him. Loving people adopt him, give him good meals and a great place to live, but the best part is that his adoptive father is also a middle school football coach. Good love comes to those whose dreams are unstoppable. And Harrison's dreams never stop even after they're achieved. He dreams further about a future in the NFL and a college education. Then the unthinkable bursts the wonderful bubble. Harrison is faced with a set of downs and choices that will definitely change his world forever.

Green writes with a new degree of tension in UNSTOPPABLE that serves as scaffolding for a difficult story, but one worth reading. Compared to past efforts, UNSTOPPABLE rides a wave of edginess not present in other worthwhile books by Green. The juicy gridiron details he writes so well are present in this story and his talent for the stunning simile and meticulous metaphor provides readers with the vividness they expect in Green's work. But the rawness of the subject matter and the artfulness with which he writes about a very poignant issue are breathtaking. Just as breathtaking as when a young talented football player is unstoppable as he runs into the end zone for the victory of a lifetime.

Unstoppable is based in a modern day middle school. The book is centered around Harrison, a 14 year old boy. He was taken away from his mother when he was just a child due to his mother’s alcohol problems. He has went from one foster family to another trying to find his place. Harrison has a deep love for the game of football, but misfortune always seems to find him. After a simple knee injury turns out to be much more, Harrison finds a way through not only himself, but others to help him through this difficult time. Despite having dreams of one day playing in the NFL, he was never allowed to play through his previous foster parents.
The main story of this book takes place with Harrison in a foster family named the Constables who live on a farm. The Constables use their children as forced labor to do the work on the farm and are physically and emotionally abusive to Harrison. The family makes him work long hours and doesn’t seem to care about his well-being, or love him at all. Harrison is a big strong kid, so he can take the work; it’s the physical and emotional abuse that sets Harrison on edge. One day at the farm Mr. Constable hits Harrison in the eye with a belt; blinded by anger and rage Harrison accidentally kills Mr. Constable with a pitchfork.
Harrison is on the move again. The social worker assigned to Harrison matches him with a couple who happens to be the social workers daughter and son-in-law. Harrison is never quick to assume that this new family will be any different than his last. However, this changes and Harrison finally gets the love and attention he has always be looking for. Harrison even starts to call them mom and dad.
Harrison’s dad turns out to be the head coach of the local middle school football team (the same school Harrison attends). Harrison has always had a passion for football and even dreamed of playing in the NFL. However, because of his previous foster experiences he never got the chance. His size and speed made him an instant star, but not everyone was too keen on him. Leo Howard and Adam Varnett made fun of Harrison because of his damaged eye, and the fact that he was adopted by foster parents. That is when he meets Becky. Becky stood up for Harrison, something few people have done for Harrison in his life. Harrison appreciated this, and the two quickly became good friends.
When all was seeming to go well for Harrison, things quickly changed again. One day during practice Harrison hurt his knee and it needed to be examined. After the examination, the doctors had discovered that Harrison had a form of bone cancer in his knee. In order for the cancer to be stopped from spreading, his leg was forced to be amputated. Harrison did end up returning to the field, but the injury moved him to special teams, instead of the running back position that made him so valuable in the first place. Even though Harrison had to deal with so much adversity at a young age, he was still able to prove that if you put your mind to it, you can be UNSTOPPABLE.
I think Unstoppable is a great book for me (since I am a physical education teacher) it shows a lot of heart and adversity that students at a young age have to go through in not only sports, but in school and life as well.

Book Review

School starts out rough for Harrison but football is where he makes his mark. Then something unexpected happens something terrible that changes his life forever. With the help of his new family he tries to fight this new tough battle the toughest thing he has ever done, trying to get back on the football field. This book can really bring home some emotion while reading, the love of a son, for a son, the struggles that we go through and how something that a lot of people can relate to, Cancer. This book was a great read! Easy to understand, and follow, with short chapters being a great choice for young readers and teachers looking to find a new reading book for class. The book and the events in the book have the ability to draw any reader into the characters. Young readers could really relate to the main character and the main characters friends and classmates. Adult readers could really fit into some of the family figures and teacher roles and other adults within the book. While reading I found traits from several influential characters that help Harrison become who he was in myself and I really liked that I could put myself in this book the way I did. The reason for reading this book was for an assignment in my reading across curriculum class at The Ohio State University for my major in Physical Education and health teaching. This book assignment is for us to learn how we as teachers can bring reading and understanding how literature can be learned not only in reading and English class but also through all classes including physical education and health. I hope that everyone that chooses this book enjoys this book as much as I did. I found some great connection within the characters and I hope that you will as well. Happy reading.

Unstoppable was written by Tim Green, a star defensive end with Atlanta Falcons in 1986 and now a lawyer and bestselling author of sports novels. Unstoppable is about a boy figuring out the good in life. He is constantly thrown into bad situations which makes him unhopeful. When life starts to turn around for him he continues to ask himself “is this real?” or “is this too good to be true”. He finds himself waiting for something bad to happen because that is all he was ever use to. Harrison has a passion for football. Once he got the opportunity to play he was truly unstoppable.
Harrison starts out living with his awful foster parents. Things turn around when he able to leave his terrible foster parent and move in with kind, caring people who he will eventually call them mom and dad. He gets love and support from his new parents in ways that he didn’t know was possible. His dad is the football coach of the eighth grade and Harrison is determined to be the best on the team. Harrison faces challenges along the way but at the end of the day he was an amazing football player. Some unfortunate events get thrown his way and this is when Harrison begins to lose hope. Through a period of struggle and zero motivation he is reminded of how great he was and how he can continue to be. It is up to him and only him to make the decision to do the best for his life.

I chose to read this book because I am going to be a physical education teacher. My teacher recommended I read this book because it was related to my major. While reading this book I found myself relating to the Coach. He would be instructing his team during practice on where to go and what drill they were going to do and it was very relatable to things I have learned in my classes. It addressed managerial tasks, instructional tasks and ties it all together with time management. Not only did I notice coaching/teaching strategies, but I also noticed bullying and teachers not being respectful. In the story there are two boys who are bullies to Harrison. As a future teacher, I did not think they addressed the situation correctly. I found myself getting upset while reading the book because of those two bullies. Also Harrison’s math teacher was so far off from being a realistic teacher in today’s classroom. All though she may not have seemed realistic it definitely got me thinking about some teachers who end up losing their license because they are not good teachers.

Unstoppable is a moving story that is motivational in itself. It shows how short life can be and how easily life can be taken for granted. When I finished reading the book I wanted to get up and go do something! I wanted to take full advantage of the things I am able to do in my life and be grateful for it.

Unstoppable by Tim Green is truly an unforgettable book that is addictive, catchy, inspiring, and heartbreaking all at the same time. This books shows how a young boy overcomes life challenges and keeps pursuing his dreams no matter what obstacles come his way. I am one who does not like to read, however I found myself not being able to put this book down after I started into it. The chapters were short and often ended with cliffhangers.

Harrison Johnson, the main character, is a 13 year old boy how has been bounced around in the foster care system. He had always been big for his age. He had no clue who his father was and his real mother, Melinda Johnson was a drug addict who was irresponsible. Harrison had a dream of one day playing in the NFL, but up until this point he was never allowed to play football. He was in an abusive and cruel home with the Constable’s who ended up adopting him. They lived on a farm with four other children Crab, Dora, Flossy, and Lump. Harrison was always doing chores and was never allowed to watch TV. When Harrison misbehaved or lied, he was hit with a belt by Mr. Constable. One day the beating led to a horrible accident that resulted in the death of Mr. Constable. Harrison had been locked in a silo for three days by his foster mother Mrs. Constable because of his actions. Harrison was locked up in protective custody for several weeks. During his time in there, his real mother passed away and the adoption to the Constables’ had been undone.

Harrison’s life transformed into something unbelievable for him. He was placed in loving home Ron Kelly, an English teacher/football coach and Jennifer Kelly a lawyer. He grew close to two friends Justin, who he mowed lawns with, and Becky a girl he grew very fond of. However, he was bullied by a classmate/teammate Leo Howard. It wasn’t long before Harrison was the star running back on the junior high football team. He would crash through blockers, leap bodies, and run down the field with players hanging onto him. They referred to him as “Unstoppable”. The team had not won many games prior to Harrison joining the team.

That season, Harrison led the team to the state championship. Prior to semi-final game, they had a live scrimmage which resulted in an injury to his knee. After a touchdown made by Harrison, Leo launched himself low, helmet first, and smashed into the side of Harrison’s knee. Harrison felt a sharp twinge in his knee but ignored it and told the coach he was fine. He played in the Semi-final game with the pain in his knee. He kept this a secret from everyone.

Harrison’s life was forever changed. Doc’s prediction was correct, he did have a tear in the cartilage. However, they discovered something much worse from the MRI. Harrison had bone cancer in his knee. He had surgery immediately and his leg was amputated from the knee down. Major Kirk Baurer, a lifelong friend of the Kelly’s was called in. He ran an amputee rehabilitation program for the U.S. Army. He too had had his leg amputated. Major showed him videos of other successful athletes who was able to play after having their leg amputated. Major and the therapist worked with Harrison. Harrison still wanted to play in the NFL. He went through chemotherapy and depression. Harrison pushed himself through physical therapy on his own, sometimes two hard, which led to some setbacks. To everyone’s disbelief, Harrison was back on the playing field at the start of the next season. Once again, he was unstoppable.

I highly recommend this book to anyone (coaches, teachers, pastors, youth group leaders, etc.). This book helps reluctant readers stay focused and engaged. As a business teacher, I was not sure how I was going to incorporate this book into my curriculum when I picked it for my assigned reading. To my surprise, I found many useful lessons (bullying, facing challenges, relationships, setting goals, dealing with disabilities, etc.).

This heartwarming story is very inspirational. This book truly showed how this young boy with perseverance overcame life’s challenges and it did not keep him for pursuing his dream no matter what obstacles life threw at him. The author did a great job keeping your attention. The majority of the chapters ended with a cliffhanger that encouraged you to keep reading.

As an adult who has read countless novels, Unstoppable is my new all time favorite book. Not only is this book easy to read with short chapters that end on cliffhangers, but Tim Green was able to use more than just football to keep me interested throughout the entirety of the story. The protagonist, a young boy named Harrison, grew up bouncing between foster homes where he was beaten, mistreated, and neglected; until he is adopted by a loving football coach and his lawyer wife who make him feel love for the first time.

Once he is placed in this home Harrison feels like he has it all, clean clothes, his own room, and the star running back on his adopted dad’s middle school football team where he is oftend referred to as “unstoppable”. Unfortunately, Harrison is right about things feeling like they are “too good to be true”. As he is diagnosed with cancer, his leg is simultaneously amputated from the knee down, forcing him to face many new lifelong challenges. Through Tim Green’s introduction of Harrison’s cancer, he introduces a new important person in Harrison’s life, his hospital roommate, Marty. Marty is a younger kid who has been battling cancer for much longer than Harrison and knows the end of his own life is near. This puts Harrison’s circumstances into prespective since this younger boy who has it worse off is nothing but positive and uplifting. With the amputation of his leg another important character is introduced, Major. As an old friend of his adopted father who comes back from the military, he moves in to help push Harrison to get back on his feet with a prosthetic leg and intensive training. The only hope Harrison has left is that he can come back to football and soon become unstoppable again.

I picked up this book to read as a future PE teacher thinking I could find a way to incorporate it since it is a sports related novel directed to children. Now I know there are endless ways that I can include this astounding story. Two important lessons that I see in schools that I can take from this are bullying, and facing challenges. Harrison faces the challenges from his past in foster care and now cancer and the amputation of his leg, he is also bullied for having a wig and a prosthetic leg. I think that if students read this book they will feel empathy for Harrison and how he is bullied; therefore, I hope that this will push them to stand up for other students that are bullied and be more aware that everyone has their own challenges and story. Physical disabilities can be a great issue in the gym where students look down upon those who have a disability, who in conclusion may not be able to perform skills as fast or precise as the rest of the class right away. Incorporating this novel into my classes can make sensitive topics, such as bullying and disabilities, an open conversation that all students feel comfortable talking about. I think that reading this book will make everyone a better person just by heart wrenching circumstances of Harrison’s young life.

Unstoppable by Tim Green, is about a middle-schooled age boy, Harrison, who had a troubled past in foster care. After he is taken into a caring family, he joins a football team and experiences great success, everyone who sees him play calls him “unstoppable.” Shortly after Harrison thought he had it all, he faces another challenge he has to overcome and playing football again seems like a distant dream. Even though Harrison has a supportive family now and friends, he has to work harder than ever to achieve the dream of playing in a game again. Harrison faces love and tragedy and everything in between in this novel. I read this novel, as a future teacher, to see if it could be successfully added into a health class curriculum. I, myself, thoroughly enjoyed this novel. It was an easy read, easy to dive into, with very few dull parts. This is important from a student’s perspective. With the work load they are already given, I would not want to give students a book that they feel is “homework” or punishment to read. The short chapters help with this easy-to-read quality, because it makes you believe you can read just one more chapter before bed, which can turn into ten. I would most likely integrate this novel into a mental health unit. The plot is continuously moving, with a lot of developments. The main character, Harrison, goes through a lot; supportive families, unsupportive families, success, set-backs, bullying, relationships, and health issues. I like the way the book described the way Harrison felt through all of these situations, and how his mood and health responded. There is a lot to go upon in a mental health unit, dealing with so many emotions and body responses. There are examples of how to deal with scenarios in a healthy manner, and their positive effects that come from these responses. There are also examples of how scenarios are dealt with in an unhealthy way, and the negative effects of those responses. Overall I would recommend this novel to anyone with an interest in sports or health. As a future health teacher, I would definitely consider adding this book into a mental health unit either in middle or high school. There is a lot that can be done with this novel, including using it in a healthy environment unit, or a cancer unit. There are aspects of nutrition and exercise in this book as well. I have been given the idea, from a fellow teacher, of reading one book at the beginning of the year, and drawing from that book in all of your units throughout the year. In this way, students can see how nutrition ties together with mental health. How good relationships tie together with success. This novel includes it all, and would be good to use in that manner as well. The best part of this novel is how it can relate to so many topics. As well as students being able to relate to this story, and enjoy it like I did.

The novel Unstoppable by Tim Green, I can honestly say, surprised me a little bit. As I began reading it I found it to be honestly a bit predictable and was under the impression that it was going to stay that way. Harrison, the main character, had an extreme life situation turned around one day into a seemingly perfect “new life” made for a cheerful story and a good and cheerful read. However at the time I did not realize that Harrison’s new life was not due to a scenery change but rather a change of a much bigger kind. The story really begins about two thirds or more of the way in when Harrison wakes up in the hospital to the realization he no longer has one of his legs due to the discovery of bone cancer. Not only does this completely alter Harrison physically but it also severely mentally affects him as he comes to the “realization” he thinks he can no longer play football until a family friend comes by to help. Then the books dives more in-depth on his struggles and successes as he learns to live with his new “leg.”

Tim Green just a solid job at creating a sports story with a twist and really engages the reader to show them the mental battle that Harrison goes through as well as the physical battles he goes through, whether that be on the football field, in his personal life as a kid in school, or during rehabilitation. One of my main critiques of this novel is that I was hoping for it to be more about his cancer and the struggle after his surgery rather than a majority about football with the last quarter of the book being about his rehab and things. However with that being said I understand that this is not a novel on cancer but rather a story about sports and triumph despite hardship with respect to sports as a main outlet for build-up, conflict, and so on until the “big moment” which propels the fall and rise of the main character. On another note I really liked how Tim Green used enough adjectives to give the words an enhanced meaning or the characters an identity without overdoing it and forcing the reader to see each character or scene a certain way. Overall I would say that this is a well written novel for young adults who are interested in reading a story with a good plot and one solid twist. I found myself exploring how I thought the main character felt and the emotions that would be running through me if I were the main character, but I think the author does a good job of allowing the reader to dive as deep as they choose to into the novel. An overall good read that gets an 8/10 from me as a reader.

Upon my reading of the Teen fiction book called unstoppable by Author Tim Green I can say that I would recommend this book to any teacher or really anyone who likes a good inspirational story in a sports background. This book is about a young boy names Harrison. Harrison was a foster child that went from foster home to foster home. He was abused both physically and mentally. Harrison was driven to violent outrages. Harrison wad finally placed in a loving foster home where all his dreams of becoming an NFL player could come true. Harrison was in and out of foster homes. Harrison was placed in a foster home with an abusive foster father. Mr Constable hit him with a belt buckle in the eye, which led Harrison to kill him with a pitchfork. He was taken away and place with a loving family. The police officer who was on his case was the mother of the new foster mom. The foster dad was a junior high school coach. Harrison had always wanted to play football, which he has never been allowed to do. Harrison learned to play football and was able to use his aggression in a postitive way. Harrison went on to play high school football. One day in football practice he got hit in the knee. He didn't go to the doctor because he thought the pain would go away. Harrison was playing in one of the last games of the season and he got hit again in the same knee. He was rushed to the hospital where they ran test and found out that he had cancer in his right knee. When he woke up, he could not feel himself scratching his knee. They ended up amputating his leg. He was able to come back with a prostetic leg and play football again. Harrison showed that he could be brave and come back out on top. This book was a true inspiration to me by seeing someone overcome impossible odds and then rise back to the top. Now I know normally this can been seen as a cliché and truth be told I think that is as well in this book. The story of a troubled youth overcoming all odds and finding success on the football field after all of the adversity he had been through he found success. While this is true here it still did not take away from the overall satisfaction I got out of reading this book. I can’t say enough how much I did enjoy this book I would recommend it to anyone really. Myself being a Physical Education and Health teacher in training I really want to use this in my future classroom as a book I will recommend this book to all of my future students. Also to other educators I urge you to use this book in your future curriculums. I truly believe your students will enjoy this book. I think that this is a great read for people of all ages and I urge you to go read this book.

Tim Green has created realistic and unforgettable characters that make for a compelling read. A foster child, one day finds unconditonal love of family. Then, just when he thinks he has it all, he is blind-sided by a devastating opponent that doesn't play by the rules. More than a football story, it is the story of one young man finding out where he fits in-- and then discovering his courage must have no limits.

Unstoppable by Tim Green is a fast paced heart wrenching survival story! Harrison is so strong as a lead character, the reader begins to cheer for him from the very beginning. When you think of an athlete and their precise training, together with grit and determination-- that is Harrison Johnson. This book is so fast paced, that you won't want to stop reading! Thank you, Tim Green, for a great addition to sports novels.

Unstoppable is a great book. I like it because football is involved. Its also a happy and sad story because he is happy when he is playing football and sad because he gets leg cancer. I like the part when he's playing in a game and he scores with three blockers on his back. I'd recommend this book for all ages.
