Ezekiel Elliott is a professional
football player who plays for the Dallas Cowboys. He is their star running back and has
accomplished many accolades even though he has only been in the NFL since the 2016 football season. This story is a short biography on his
football career in high school, college and NFL as well as what he does to
train and his personal style and image.
The pictures are interesting and well done and this book will appeal to
your sports fans.
There is a lot of text
(2-3 big paragraphs per page) but the facts are interesting. My biggest issue with putting this book in
the library is that Elliott was placed on a six game suspension for accusations
of domestic abuse against his girlfriend.
Also, although it has a copyright date of 2018 the information isn’t
current past the end of the 2016 football season. These sports books can become dated quickly
because players change teams or break new records.
