Pujols: More than the Game - Scott Lamb and Tim Ellsworth

As a diehard baseball fan, I was excited to review Pujols: More Than the Game written by Scott Lamb and Tim Ellsworth.  Never having heard of the authors, I was not expecting too much from the book, but as soon as I read the forward and first chapter, I was engrossed.  This book is a great story of a great man.  While I knew Albert Pujols was a Christian, I was fascinated with just how strongly devoted him and his family are.  This book is the perfect combination of Christianity and baseball. 

This book is very interesting, and read very quickly.  I finished the book just two days after I received it in the mail.  Pujols devotion in Christ is inspiring, and reading about his life and trials is a refreshing, and a great example of overcoming adversity to rising up in the strength of Christ.  The authors writing style is very quick paced and engaging.  Their writing holds readers attentions, and do not bog the narrative down with long unnecessary anecdotes.  I would recommend this book anyone who is interested in reading about the life of a devote Christian, or any baseball fan who has been amazed by the on field exploited of Albert Pujols in his first ten major league season and want to know more about his amazing life off the field.
