A great book thats part of a trio

Cover-up John Feinstein Knopf Books for Young Readers Realistic sport mystery Do you want to read about sports? Tired of reading the same thing? Well in Cover-up John Feinstein takes you to the dark side of sports in this mystery at the Super bowl. The main characters, Stevie Thomas and Susan Carol Anderson, have known each other for almost a year, meeting at the Final Four in New Orleans. Stevie and Susan Carol have a T.V. show every Friday about sports, until one day when the hated producer of the channel comes to Stevie¿s house. Stevie is fired, and that's when there is some heat created between the jerk-producer and Stevie. Stevie and Susan Carol get permission to go to the Super bowl with friend and sport¿s writer Bobby Kelleher. Stevie earned the right to go because he wrote a story every day for Kelleher. Susan Carol was still with the T.V. company, and she was at the Super bowl with them, and with a new co-host, a teen pop sensation who took Stevie¿s spot. Stevie and Susan Carol argued for a few days before she called Stevie at 2:00 am. For the third time, Stevie and Susan Carol have got themselves in a mess. A mess to do with HGH, the California Dreams starting linemen, and a huge cover-up. The main character in this book, like the other two in the series, is Stevie Thomas. Stevie lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and loves sports. But to his misfortune, in the last year he has gotten about ten people arrested in three different sports. Stevie is about five-foot eight inches, and is athletic, he is very friendly. In Cover-up he eats a lot, due to his growing. He has a special mind for sports, it seems like he knows everything, but he is usually outsmarted by Susan Carol Anderson who is the second most important character in the book. Susan Carol lives in North Carolina, where her dad is a priest. Susan Carol is very tall, about five-foot ten inches. Susan Carol is very emotional through the book, and most people mistake her for being in high-school, or even an adult. Susan Carol is an outstanding swimmer, she is ranked in the top ten butterfly swimmers in the United States. She and Stevie are friends, and both are eighth graders. Don Meeker is the owner of the California Dreams, a fictional football team in the NFL. Don is an older man, and very grumpy. Sometimes, he is a jerk, he is also very stubborn and greedy. Don Meeker is the richest team owner in the NFL. 'Not in real life.' Don is often made fun of by sport writer Bobby Kelleher for being short, these two men have had a grudge against each other for awhile. Stevie isn¿t exactly ¿friends¿ with Don Meeker either. The characters all have different emotions and personalities that make this book as exciting as it is. There are a few things that make this book as good as it is. I think the reason why kids that like sports would like this book is because it has a great football theme and has a good who-done-it plot throughout the story. I also think this is a good book for children is because it introduces the negative aspects of HGH and Steroid use, which is good to learn about at a young age. There is a lot of HGH and other performance enhancing drugs out there today, and kids should know how to deal with them, like Stevie and Susan Carol did. There is a lot of chemistry between Stevie and Susan Carol, and this is a good book to show good friendship, responsibility, and trust. This book has a great example on what media can do to or for kids. Stevie and Susan Carol have to deal with a lot of pressure and stress as a result of the media. This is a great book to teach children what the dark side of sports is and a how important a strong friendship is to have.

Question but might spoil

I not done yet but why does susan not have her birthday on her liberty card

Very Attracting Book

What a Book
Cover Up, a best seller by John Feinstein was one of the best books I've ever read. I liked the suspense in the book and I also liked the idea of putting kids in the story plot. I think that this book is the best book in the series. Stevie and Susan Carol have solved other mysteries at the Final Four and at the US Open. But this is the Super Bowl. It is the biggest sports event in America and maybe the whole world. Can Stevie and Susan get enough proof to explain that the Dreams offensive line failed their doping test? Find out by reading "Cover Up", John Feinsteins number one seller.

Incredible

Johm feinstein is my favorite author by far. His books never disappoint me and they are so addicting! I love how they get to travel to the super bowl to find out 5 players drug tested positive and the league is covering it up. This is a MUST read for any sports fan, including all his other books. I hope his next one comes out soon

amazing

this book is perfect for mystery readers

This book is amazing- you must check this out soon!!!

The book that I am reading is called Cover- Up and the author is John Feinstein. I thought this was a great book. In the book there are two kids named Stevie and Susan and they are on USTV channel.
Next, the setting compares to today's football because in the book the football players do drugs and in today's football they do drugs also. The author makes me feel as though I am in the story by describing every place and event that happens. The setting takes place at the Super Bowl, and the USTV station. And every setting when I close my eyes it makes me feel like I am their with Stevie and Susan.
Finally, the author makes the characters feel as they are real people. By giving them feelings and by describing their hair color and their personal likes and dislikes. Both characters have fought over who will be broad casting the USTV station, and that makes me feel sad.

5th Grade book review

Cover Up
John Feinstein
Yearling
realistic fiction

The biggest game in sports history and its all a lie. In Cover Up by John Feinstein, Steve Thomas and Susan Carol are trying to stop the Carolina Dreams head coach Mr. Meeker. Meeker's entire offensive line didn't pass there doping test. Meeker is trying to hide the test until the end of the Super Bowl. But Steve and Susan wont give up. With the biggest mystery in SPORTS.

Steve Thomas is a never give up man. He is very intelligent. Steve is one of the only ones who knows about the HDH. He is the main character. Another main character is Susan Carol. She is also a never give up and very intelligent. she is trying to tell someone about the test. Mr. meeker is one of the meanest sneakiest and bossy coaches you will ever see. Meeker is trying to cover up the test until the Super bowl is over.

In cover up you would have to read the hole book to see what would happen at the end. This is one of the best books iv ever read. Its also one of the hardest books to put down. It is an action pack mystery filled book. I recommend this book to people who love mystery.

Cover Up

Cover Up,by John Feinstein,entertains the reader with vivid description and lots of drama. Feinstein did a great job of putting a good picture of the charecters and drama in your mind. The reader can easily picture the authors stress when Stevie was waiting for the QB to show up with the documents,making him wonder if he was joking about when he said he would meet them at the pool. This story tought a great lesson- even though you have a cover up you still might be caught. I would recommend Cover Up to anyone who likes sports mysterys.

Really good even for older than age range

I'm older than the tweleve range but this book is still good. I'm a huge sports fan. It gets the attention of sports people, but even the non-sports people. Also you don't have to really understand football to get the book. Great plot and book you hate to put down. Totally recommend this to all ages and interest in books. My cousin who's three years younger and her mother both enjoyed this book.

I LOVE SPORTS

I like this book beacuse it has connections to my life and i also like it beacuse you can relate to this book alot if you like sports. I didnt really like to the end of this book beacuse it doesnt talk about sports it only talks about romance and what happend to there life after they went to the super bowl. The best part about this book was that they are only 13 and 12 and they are going into real life situation. Well that is whta it is like in the begging . But the middle of the book is all about sports and that is why i like this book so much.

Awsome!!

spots and a thrilling mystrey, written well

Awesome

It was oneof the best books ive ever read

Cover-Up

Cover-up was an okay story that had its ups and downs. A problem that I found with the story did not happen until I was towards the end of the story, for me it had become a lot of aimless talking that I felt was not necessary. The story gave a lot of background was could be good or bad depending on the reader, if you are pretty familiar with sports and how drug testing occurs then it is bad. But someone who may be not as experienced as some people it could help them because it guided you through the story. Another issue that I had also found was that parts would stay at one spot for a while and then quickly breeze through other parts of the story. A good thing about the book is that it is a great concept, and idea, it was almost like an action book. There was suspense and Drama that put the whole story together. Who doesn¿t want to read about a big issue in this case steroids, which is illegal in football the day before the biggest game of all. Overall this was a great story but the background and parts leading up to it was poor that is why I gave it 3 stars.
