I am just so very glad you asked. Here is a really great game which my son won. Following the fine example of his dad, my son sacrificed his queen. He then overwhelmed his opponent with a minor piece king-side attack. He also annotated the game. His opponent was Ricardo D. D'Arruda, a FIDE master from Argentina.
This game is somewhat reminiscent of the famous "Game of the Century" from 1956 where a 13-year-old Bobby Fischer defeated Donald Byrne.
