He is also the brother of Wyatt Cullen, who quarterbacked his team to the Texas State Championship last season--not to mention the son of former NFL quarterback and local legend, Troy Cullen. To be a Cullen in Texas is to be royalty . . . and a quarterback. All of which leaves 14-year-old Jake in a Texas-sized shadow, a tall order for any boy, especially one who's merely a freshman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile his teammates assume the starting job will be handed to Jake on a silver platter, the truth is that he has to fight for every snap and every ounce of respect. Jake may be a Cullen and he may play quarterback, but he is not his brother or his father. Being a good teammate comes naturally to Jake; being a winner and a celebrity does not. He's just like every other boy--awkward around a pretty girl, in awe of his famous family, and desperate to simultaneously blend in and cast his own shadow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by the real-life Manning family of quarterbacks (father Archie, Super Bowl-winning sons Peyton and Eli) and set amid the football-crazy culture of Texas immortalized in Friday Night Lights, QB 1 is a coming-of-age story perfect for the fan of MILLION-DOLLAR THROW, HEAT, and of course FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"This is a wonderful book by a great writer.  All football fathers and sons will enjoy it.\"--Archie Manning\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Young Readers Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47077060477168,"sku":"9781101638583","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781101638583_p0.jpg?v=1763689249","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781101638583","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
