If you had a child, would you want to snuggle up at night and read her a story written by ... Dennis Rodman? That's what we thought. Nevertheless, the 51-year-old retired NBA bad boy, who has three children and recently divorced the mother of his younger two kids, has written a children's book called "Dennis the Wild Bull," The New York Daily News reports.
dennis rodman book
The book will be released in September and, according to the book’s blog, it is being dedicated to Rodman’s children, with "the sole purpose of conveying good lessons to children based on Dennis’s own experiences as a world class athlete while overcoming obstacles as a child."

Darren Prince, Rodman’s agent, told Page Views: “It’s just really about the character, more about being comfortable in your own skin and that it’s okay to be different." Prince said that the book is Rodman’s "own way of reaching out to his own children after everything that’s happened." In past years, Rodman has spent time in rehab and been arrested for drunken driving and domestic violence. Do you think the book is a nice step in the right direction? Or is it just plain weird?

    i don't see why people think its weird, i think he is a pretty awesome guy. trying to help kids learn and make them love who they are is not weird if you ask me, he has a lot of good moral views i think, likes animals too which is a big thumbs up in my book. i thnk he is great for writing a kids book. :)

    Externally that's true. But do any of us know what's going on in his heart and mind? Appearances are superficial. There's more to people than meets the eye.

    I KNOW HIS STORY, KNOW HIS EARLY YEARS WERE ROUGH.....STILL, HE COULD HAVE CHOSEN ANOTHER (MORE POSITIVE) DIRECTION......HE HAD PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES. HE SEEMS TO HAVE HAD THE DESIRE TO APPEAR TO BE THE WILD AND CRAZY CHILD. I'M SURE THE "PAIN" HE SUFFERED FROM WITHIN HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH HIS WANTING TO "STAND APPART" FROM OTHERS, AND END UP "IN THE NEWS." WE JUST HAVE TO ACCEPT (EVEN THOUGH HE HAS DEEP HEART FEELINGS) HE HAS CHOSEN TO BE WEIRD.

    I know that people do change as they mature, however, I think for most it's hard to utter the word child in the same breathe with Rodman. Although, MJ use to try and convey that Dennis did some crazy things, but he wasn't crazy. So maybe this is a side of Dennis that is soft, loving and sincere.

    Even drug abusers have turned their lives around, I don't know too many people that haven't had something in their lives that they have had to overcome. Smoking, alcohol, lieing, it's always something. I don't know anyone perfect, only Jesus!

    It might relate more to children who don't believe in the fairy tale crap. Might have a hint of reality in it.

    Being who he is, it is impossible for him to write a children's book and have it be anything if not weird.
