it is good because it is awesome. But the book is about how he plays golf in Hawaii.

Ed "Bogie" Bogart is blind, but he inadvertently discovers he's a natural at golf. He is invited to join a youth tournament with a grand prize of one million dollars. Despite the possibility of winning a lot of money, Bogie's real motivation for winning is to beat his nemesis. If you want to know how a blind person plays golf, read The Million Dollar Putt by Dan Gutman (Gut as in Rut, not boot). This is on the shelf at my high school library, but it's certainly more appropriate for upper elementary or middle school students. A quick, fun read for adults. ( )

A very fun, quick read. On the young end, but we don't have other golf books--and in Michigan, at least, golf is definitely a sport! Likable main characters who learn life lessons from one another. Funny, too! ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0786836423, Paperback)

Edward Bogie Bogard may be blind, but he can learn just about anything he sets his mind toriding a bike, parasailing, or playing guitar. His dad encourages all of his interests except one: golf. So when a few of his classmates invite him to a driving range, no one is more surprised than Bogie when he turns out to have the swing of a natural player. But blind golfing is a team sport. Now what he needs is a coach.Enter Birdie, the kooky girl next door. Birdie seems to have no friends, creates elaborate worlds in miniature in her basement, and has managed to make it to age twelve without having ridden riding a bike. As these neighbors team up to conquer the greens of Hawaii, they learn about more than just golf. Then someone mysteriously enters Bogie in a golfing tournamentwith a million-dollar prize. Could Birdie be the unlikely key to Bogies million-dollar win?
