Hawk: Occupation: Skateboader

Hawk: Occupation: Skateboarder is by Tony Hawk. The most famous skateboarder in the world tells his own story with the help of Sean Mortimer. This is a story of success and failure. Boys will love this book, especially if they have any interest in skating. The book is loaded with stats and pictures. A great way to get boys to read nonfiction literature. There is some profanity and potty humor in the book, but no more than would be expected from a book about the skateboarding culture.


Ratings: 9th grade - 8 out of 10 - P (profanity).
