These are mine, in Italian language!
I don't know which one I prefer between these. I have read all them and I loved all immediately!! Perhaps "Tuesdays with Morrie" is the best for me... ;-) I watched the movie "Un giorno ancora" (For One More Day) at the Italian television and I really enjoyed it. Now I'm looking for "I miei martedì col professore" (Tuesdays with Morrie) but it isn't so easy to find it.

Your first book I read was The Time Keeper and it unexpectedly blew my mind in the most brilliant way possible. That practically led me to your other books.
So, I have read Have a Little Faith several times. I truly admire the Reb, I found myself being particularly drawn to him. As a Muslim, my heart was deeply touched when he referred to the Arabic family photos by saying “Enemy schmenemy, this was a family.”
Words can barely describe how wonderful your books are to me; they can even keep my attention all throughout the whole thing. They have literally changed my perspective on life and helped me through a lot. I am so thankful to have you, Mr Albom, in my life.
By the way, I am SO excited about your new book, The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto! Can't wait for November to come!

From the Detroit Free Press: Opening Day about tradition, change for Tigers
The manager, Brad Ausmus, trotted out to the mound, and the Tigers' fans booed. It was Opening Day, and they were witnessing a pitching masterpiece by David Price. It was one out from completion, and the last thing they wanted was to see Price lifted — especially for a closer named Joe Nathan, who, last year, was as reliable as a teenager's phone.
But Ausmus gave the sign, Price walked off, Nathan came in … and four pitches later, he had a strikeout, a save, the Tigers had a 4-0 victory, and everyone was happy.

From the Detroit Free Press: Duke again ends another incredible MSU season
INDIANAPOLIS – In the hyperdrive world of the NCAA tournament, it takes six days to go from overjoyed to overwhelmed. The Michigan State team that fanned crazy flames these last few weeks, flamed out badly in the national semifinals Saturday night. The Spartans' 81-61 loss to Duke was their worst loss of the season, as gnawing as their wins were exhilarating. Too many mistakes. Too many fouls. Too clogged of an offense. Too good of an opponent.

From the Detroit Free Press: MSU's Trice underscores value of senior status
"I don't think I would be who I am today if it weren't for going through four years of college."
— Travis Trice
Behold the senior.
He is a dinosaur. A relic. A thing of the past. Four years in college basketball today suggests a failure of sorts. You were not good enough to be snagged by the NBA.
But behold the senior who wears No. 20 for Michigan State. He is smarter. He leads. He sets an example. He has become, as even he admits, "the face that the other guys look to."
