Packers wide receiver Donald Driver has made a Lambeau Leap into the literary world.

Driver has written his first children's book, "Quickie Makes the Team," an illustrated hardcover book about a young boy's quest to make the football team. Driver said it was inspired by the bedtime stories he tells to his children, Cristian and Christina.

Waukesha artist Joe Groshek provided the illustrations for the 32-page book, which was printed at Worzalla Publishing in Stevens Point and sells for $19.95. Proceeds from the book will benefit Driver's foundation and Goodwill Industries.

Driver, a spokesperson for Goodwill, will visit three area Goodwill retail stores on Dec. 9 for book signings. (Note: He will not sign items other than the book).

Here is his schedule for Dec. 9:

2-4 p.m. -- Waukesha Goodwill Store & Donation Center
1400 Nike Dr., Waukesha

4:30-6 p.m. -- West Allis Goodwill Store & Donation Center
11000 W. Oklahoma Ave.

6:30-8 p.m. -- Franklin Goodwill Store & Donation Center
6941 S. Riverwood Blvd. (behind Gander Mountain on South 27th Street)
