Product Review: Buckeyes A to Z {Hardcover} (All Ages)
For Young Buckeye Fans to Learn about the History and Traditions of the OSU football Team
I will always be a Buckeyes fan. Yes, I am a Texan, but spent the first twenty years of my life in Ohio. Unless you live in the Toledo area (which, if you know your history, was once part of Michigan – check out the wiki The Toledo War (1835–1836), most Ohioans love the Buckeyes. The Horseshoe is our favorite field, the Big 10 is our Conference, Brutus is our favorite mascot and we actually know what a Buckeye is and how to make a delicious candy to make it look like the poisonous nut. We wait patiently for the Michigan vs. Buckeye game each year and if we don’t win, it’s devastating. I was, still am, a Tressel fan and I am warming up to Coach Meyer (and, yes, this is an updated book with Meyer included) and, of course, everyone knows the history of Woody Hayes. It is a rite of passage to take a picture of your infant in Buckeyes garb as an Ohioan and I am not afraid to wear my Buckeyes shirt in Austin. OK, so we can’t go to any bowl games this year. So what. Next year, we will be back on top, where we belong. I’m a fan, that’s what I have to believe!
Buckeyes A to Z is a kid’s book for Buckeyes fans to share with their kids on the team’s history that also incorporates the alphabet. If Brooke isn’t a Buckeyes fan (will there be Longhorns or A&M shirts in her future? Oh no! OK, breathe….) I will accept that when she is older. Until then, I can indoctrinate her into our traditions, most famous players and learn about OSU trivia at the same time with this wonderful book. I love the educational activities in the back and you have to keep your eye out for the ‘elusive’ Woody Hayes. Hilarious and well worth the price to Buckeyes fans everywhere. And, yes, Mascot Books has your favorite college team book for kids, too! Check it out here.
