Reviews
" Recess: From Dodgeball to Double Dutch: The Games of Youth for the Players of Today is a crash course in how to play over 150 different schoolyard games that we either never learned as kids, or forgot once we graduated high school...[It] goes beyond just how to properly play games like kickball or dodgeball, it also delves into techniques at how to excel at them as adults. Remember, your 30-year-old self isn't quite as adept at dodging a ball as your 10-year-old self was, but spending your lunch hour at work playing in the parking lot is a lot better than catching up on your friends' boring Facebook updates." -Gizmodo-- -, "That's the sweet thing about 'Recess,' which comes in a rubbery cover perfect for tossing around the driveway. It made me want to rediscover paper football, marbles, finger hockey and leg wrestling. It tempted me to stand with my hands on a wall and let my friends take aim at my rear end with a racquetball. How many books have you read lately that were that good?...'Recess' will not make kids forget their iPhones and Xboxes. It will not make professional football seem any less like war without guns. But it is nonetheless something special: a great book that begs to be put down." -The Wall Street Journal-- -, " Recess: From Dodgeball to Double Dutch: The Games of Youth for the Players of Today is a crash course in how to play over 150 different schoolyard games that we either never learned as kids, or forgot once we graduated high school...[It] goes beyond just how to properly play games like kickball or dodgeball, it also delves into techniques at how to excel at them as adults.
