Hit a Grand Slam is about Alex Rodriguez as a kid and growing up. It teaches you to be kind. I recommend it to people ages 7 and up, even if they don't like baseball. It's also a really good sports book for kids who like sports. It's one of the best sports books I ever read.

I loved this book because I got a chance to learn about Alex's life and how he handled his dad leaving. I like how he expresses his feelings and doesn't keep his feelings inside. I would recommend this book to people of all ages.

This book really affects kids in a positive way. It informs the reader "It's nice to be important, but it's important to be nice!" This having been said ever so elegantly by A-Rod himself.

Alex and his team did a great job of affluently connecting the pictures with his stories in such a way that it is one you won't want to put down until finished.

Alex is a great role model, and his book is an excellent reflection of him. His positive outlook shines throughout his book, which in turn inspires the reader, the kids.

Children are constantly searching for role models in the public spotlight. Alex Rodriguez's book introduces them to an outstanding human being who has experienced many of the obstacles in life that young children face today. Alex shares his memories of his past and the events that shaped his youth. Children will identify with his struggles and the concerns that he faced in his own childhood. Wonderful pictures fill the book and are sure to delight any fans of Alex. Most importantly the book carries the message to children that they CAN succeed with hard work, no matter what hurdles life throws at you!

Truly a book all can enjoy! It is touching, inspiring, and positive. Alex shows us that anything can be achieved, no matter what obstacles face you, if you work hard. I liked that he shared a true story of his childhood, not some candy-coated, "My life has always been great" thing. This is the kind of book that inspires children to do their best and motivates adults to keep working to reach their goals!

This is a wonderful book. This Book shows how even through adversity you can still rise above, and achieve success. It is a book for all ages, Alex had difficult times, but he did not let it stop him..that is an inspiration.

My Son loved this book. It was very educational for him to learn about A-Rod. He also learned how important education is. It was in excellent shape as well

This book is very interesting for all A-Rod fans even though it profiles him earlier in his career. I even found it interesting as a fan of A-Rod. My 9 year old nephew loves this book and as it profiles a young Alex Rodriguez, it is very inspirational for my young baseball playing nephew. It's a great book for all A-Rod fans.

Being a HUGE fan of Alex Rodriguez's, I was truly interested in his story. I loved the book. It was extremely inspiring, as well as very informative. The pictures were amazing too. I think that Alex has definitely "Hit a Grand Slam" as an author with this book. I would highly reccommend it to anyone, any age.

This book is not just a children's book. It inspires many adults and teenagers to be the best they can be, even if the circumstances are less than favorable. Extremely highly reccomended
