We are thrilled to welcome Tim Green to Blue Willow.  Tim is the author of sports books (Baseball Great, Football Genius, Football Hero, and Football Champ) that appeal to both boys and girls.  The main characters are boys, but there is always a strong girl supporting character.  Tim will be in town to discuss and sign his newest book for young readers, Rivals.  Rivals follows Josh (star of Baseball Great) as he heads to a National Baseball tournament in Cooperstown, New York, home of the Baseball Hall of Fame.  The audience for these books is 4th – 7th graders.   Tim is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Syracuse University, where he was an All American football player.  He was drafted in the first round of the NFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons where he was a top defensive player for eight years.  He's now an author and practicing attorney in upstate New York. For more information about Tim and his books, visit his website or the HarperCollins website. All Blue Willow Bookshop events are free and open to the public.  If you would like to go through the signing line and meet Tim Green for book personalization, you must purchase Rivals from Blue Willow Bookshop.
