"Shandler makes it work. Coaching Ira is a sweet book. I really, really liked it!" Audrey Shore, KOACH-On-Campus "An absolute attention-getter! Shandler combines a witty knowledge of sports with a refined look at the Jewish culture." John Discepolo, Sports Anchor, FOX Television "Smart. Funny. Emotional. Shandler doesn't write over your head. He hits you right between the heart and the laugh track. You'll wish you could be a part of Coach Ira's team." Thad Brown, Sports Anchor, WROC-TV, Rochester, NY "A good read. Shandler has a dry wit and an easy-going writing style." Jerry Beach, E-Sports Newsletter "Coaching Ira makes Judaism and basketball go together better than corned beef and pastrami." Adam Geller, Host, Sportsbreak, WGBB-AM, Long Island, NY "Shandler creatively blends Jewish literature with a story of maturity, perseverance and redemption that readers -- and sports fans -- of all ages can relate to. Coaching Ira takes the reader on a journey which illustrates just how important sports is to youngsters, how lessons learned in the athletic arena can have an effect in the real world, and how the real world can shape lessons taught in the athletic arena." Rich DeMarco, Host, SportsTalk, WCTC-AM, New Brunswick, NJ "Anyone who has played USY basketball will be brought back to Tuesday night practices in elementary school gymnasiums and Sunday morning games at various JCCs, as Shandler takes you on an inspiring journey through one man's life and the game of basketball, as we knew it as children." Jared Max, Sports Anchor, WCBS-AM, New York "Adam Shandler's first novel 'Coaching Ira' is a quick, at times moving read that made me laugh out loud and recall my own les- than- perfect days as a kid playing hoops.
