How Georgie Radbourn Saved Baseball

Rating:
Summary: David Shannon does it again!
Review: Wow, what a book! I fell in love with the graphics first and then the book. David Shannon is a talented illustrator as well as an inventive author. This picture book will charm older children (and adults) of all ages. The lessons hidden in this wonderful story about how baseball was saved by a young boy come across easily to all levels. Our junior high is using it as a schoolwide springboard for our annual Literature Week and we'll have everyone from the P.E. department to math and science building lessons around this treasure of a book. If you like a good story, if you love baseball, you'll certainly want to enjoy this book.
