Eli Manning
From the Series The Louisiana Set
When the New York Giants need a player to come through in the final minutes of a game, they call on their star quarterback—Eli Manning. For more than a decade, Eli has helped lead the Giants to victory, including two Super Bowls wins. His powerful arm and ability to think quickly set him apart on the field. Yet Eli is much more than an incredible quarterback. He’s also passionate about helping others. When his home city of New Orleans was hit by a terrible storm, Eli gathered supplies to help those affected. Eli also raises money to help people with disabilities and to fund a children’s hospital.
In Eli Manning, readers will follow this NFL superstar’s football career and discover how he has made a difference in people’s lives both on and off the field. Large, full-color action photos and engaging text will keep readers turning the pages for more.
