Dancing On Our Own: Raising Your Children as Philly Fans Despite Living Behind Sports Enemy Lines

This book is a heartwarming, humorous and historical guide for parents who are raising their kids as Philadelphia sports fans despite living behind sports enemy lines. The story follows a family who is different...sports different. They like teams from a faraway place where the parents grew up called Philadelphia.

When the parents sadly moved away from Philly, they knew they weren't in a "for who, for what?" scenario. They couldn't imagine their kids rooting for the teams in their new town. Because they were in here talkin' about the kids, not practice, they needed an Answer.

So they crafted a plan where they would educate these Whiz Kids on the merits of cheering for the Eagles, Phillies, Sixers and Flyers while living in this Philly sports hostile territory. They taught the kids how to count to fo', fo', fo' and that ⅔ of the Earth is covered by water and the other ⅓ is covered by Garry Maddox.

What follows is a children's book filled with colorful and engaging illustrations, wrapped in a parent's guide surrounded by fun easter egg facts on the history of Philly sports and fandom.

The book is great for parents to read to their little ones, while also serving as a book kids will want to keep on their bookshelves referring back to as they grow up living behind Philly sports enemy lines.

To paraphrase Merrill Reese's Super winning call:

Displaced Philadelphia fans everywhere...this book is FOR YOU!
