A man who loves to bowl rolls a perfect game--and then another and then another and then many more in a row until he winds up ESPN's newest celebrity, and he must decide if the combination of perfection and celebrity has ruined the thing he loves.

These are just some of the tales Tom Hanks tells in this first collection of his short stories..."--Publisher annotation.
