A new biography uncovering the life of golf superstar, Tiger Woods, featuring original interviews and reporting. What makes Tiger tick?
How did Tiger Woods become the greatest of all time?
And how did he fall so spectacularly?
Before the age of twenty-five, Tiger Woods had risen to phenomenon status: twice named Sportsman of the Year by Sports Illustrated , champion of more than thirty professional tournaments and the youngest player to win all four Grand Slam tournaments.
In vivid, dramatic scenes, Tiger, Tiger taps into the transformative moments of Wood's life, both on and off the course.
Praise for James Patterson; 'The master storyteller of our times' Hillary Rodham Clinton ' No one gets this big without amazing natural storytelling talent - which is what Jim has, in spades' Lee Child ' Patterson boils a scene down to the single, telling detail, the element that defines a character or moves a plot along. It's what fires off the movie projector in the reader's mind' Michael Connelly ' James Patterson is The Boss. End of.' Ian Rankin 'N obody does it better' Jeffrey Deaver
James Patterson is one of the best-known and biggest selling writers of all time. He is the author of some of the bestselling series of the past decade: the Women's Murder Club, the Alex Cross novels and Maximum Ride, and he has written many other number one bestsellers including romance novels and stand alone thrillers.

James Patterson's top tips to get your kids - even the most reluctant ones - reading! * Find books your kids love.
Talk with your child about their interests. Kids read more if they read what they like. E-reader, paperbacks, hard covers, comic books are all fine. Reading is the goal!
* Get a Library Card in your child's name.
Visit your library…the resources they have for the summer are usually terrific. And the Children's Librarian will usually bend over backwards to help your child find fun stuff to read.
* "Buddy Read" together.
Model reading with your child. Read the same books together, and talk about them.
* Create a Reading Club with friends.
It's always more fun if you can share the experience.
Set goals with your child, and track their achievements. Give them little "awards" for progress.
* Travel with your books wherever you go.
Take them to the beach, in the car, on vacations, and to the pool. Make the "in between" moments count. Put books everywhere your kids might be bored and want to turn on the TV, such as the breakfast table, the bedside table—wherever.
* Remember: it's up to you to make it fun.
Reading is fun! If it isn't, keep at it till they find books they can't put down. Then reward yourself, Mom and Dad, because you have just given your child the best present you could ever have imagined: the gift of reading—for life.
