Story
In Wildlife Wars, Terry Grosz serves up fascinating stories - alternately hair-raising, hilarious, and heart-wrenching - from his 30-year struggle to protect wildlife in America. A natural storyteller, Grosz writes about the remarkable characters he met - on both sides of the law - as he matched wits with elk poachers, salmon snaggers, commercial-market duck hunters, and a host of other law-breakers. Best of all, though, these stories are so remarkably entertaining you won't want to put them down.

On the playing field, natural talent isn’t enough—there’s a mental component that determines whether athletes win the race or wipe out before the finish line. But what separates standout sports stars from the rest? In a paradigm-shifting new theory, acclaimed sportswriter Matt Fitzgerald identifies two key traits behind athletic success: strict self-regulation over thoughts and emotions and an unquenchable psychological need to pursue victory—even when it means enduring extreme mental and physical suffering.

Story
When Ball Four was published in 1970, it created a firestorm. Bouton was called a Judas, a Benedict Arnold and a “social leper” for having violated the “sanctity of the clubhouse.” Baseball commissioner Bowie Kuhn tried to force Bouton to sign a statement saying the book wasn’t true. Ballplayers, most of whom hadn’t read it, denounced the book. It was even banned by a few libraries. Almost everyone else, however, loved Ball Four.

Many poker players can make good decisions at the table with a reasonable frequency. Nevertheless, there are numerous situations where even very experienced players behave in predictable ways.

Parenting beyond contests
I thought this audiobook was filled with practical and empathetic approaches to supporting athletes. What stood out most was how it addressed the fine line between encouraging kids and pushing them too hard—a struggle I imagine many parents face. The insights feel relatable and thoughtful without being overly preachy. I appreciated that the advice focused on mental resilience, which seems universally beneficial, even outside of sports. While some ideas felt familiar, the book tied them together in a way that clicks. If you’re a parent wanting to help your child grow through sports, this feels like time well spent.

Helping my son feel confident on the court!
As a parent, I’ve always want to support my son without making him feel too pressured. This book gave me some simple strategies to encourage him while also helping him manage his nerves before games. We’ve started trying a few mindfulness exercises together, and I can already see him handling stress better. I’m excited to keep using these ideas as he grows in sports—and in life. It’s great to have some tools that work for both of us!
