About Clyde & Friends
Introduce your little one to the game!
Golf is a game for a lifetime. The goal of the Golf Adventures with Clyde and Friends Series is to provide you with common reference points to use as you guide your little golfer through their own golf adventure.
Book 1, Clyde's First Swing is written for ages 2-5. It features age-appropriate concepts that kids can turn into practical skills on the golf course. While the words are simple, the ideas are universal. The mission of this book is ultimately to help you encourage your young golfer to fall in love with the game and spend time with you on the course.
Book 2: Clyde on the Course
COMING SOON!
Book two in the Clyde & Friends series features Clyde and his Friends Redd, Haggis and Scout as they learn more about the golf course. They explore the parts of a hole, the concept of par and where not to go. This book is appropriate for all ages.
As always, the goal of the Golf Adventures with Clyde and Friends Series is to provide parents, coaches and kids with common reference points to use as you guide your little golfer through their own golf adventure. While the words are simple, the concepts are universal. The mission of this book is ultimately to help you encourage your young golfer to fall in love with the game and spend time with you on the course.
