Honus and Me: A Baseball Card Adventure

Rating:
Summary: Great series!
Review: I am an elementary school teacher with a reluctant reader for a son! Go figure! I brought this book for him to read and he has loved it so far! I have already read Jackie and Me and absolutely loved it! My problem is that it mentions the "n" word 4 times. I am an African American and do not feel that elementary school kids are ready for this word. Others disagree with me but just be ready to explain the meaning of this word if you read Jackie and Me. Needless to say, I will not rush to make my son read it probably until at least 5th grade.

Summary: A great baseball book!
Review: I like this book because I think it would be fun to travel back in time with Honus Wagner. I also liked it when Joe had to bat. I can't believe people couldn't tell who was Joe and who was honus Wagner!

Summary: I Can't Wait for the Sequel!
Review: I loved Honus and Me because it is really rare to find a Honus Wagner card. A time travel book and a sports book combo was great! The only problem with this book was that I couldn't put it down. I am reading Jackie and Me now and I can't wait for Babe and Me.

Review: I thought this was a very good book. I am not an avid baseball fan, but this book is good for anyone who enjoys historical/fantasy fiction. I would recommend this book for anyone, in or not in the recommended ages.

Summary: Just the right amount of baseball for a story
Review: Joe just can't seem to ignore the taunts of other ballplayers, and his batting average is the pits. Filled with gloom, he really believes his life is at its nadir. Then, Joe does a good deed for his elderly neighbor, Miss Young, and is truly rewarded. He discovers a Honus Wagner baseball card in mint condition while cleaning Miss Young's attic. The card transports him back in time to the 1909 World Series where he meets Honus, substitutes for him in a game, learns how to believe in himself, and reunites Miss Young with her long lost boyfriend Honus. Farfetched indeed, but fun to read whether or not you are a baseball fan. Gutman provides facts as well as black and white photos to his entertaining story.

Summary: YOU JUST CAN'T PUT IT DOWN
Review: Me and my mom started reading this book right after school ended in June. I'm going into 4th grade now. Every night, we would say we were going to read 2 or 3 chapters, but we just couldn't put the book down...it was so cool and I couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. My mom is going to buy me Babe and me...I hope I will like it as much as Honus and me. So far, it has been my favorite book.

Summary: My Daughter & Husband loved it
Review: My 10 year daughter and my husband share a love for baseball, nostaglia, and reading. This book covers all 3. She read it first and then gave it to her Dad who read it in a hour or two. They both loved it and my daughter then read Jackie and Me. But Honus and Me still remains her favorite. She is ready to read Babe and Me.
