5.0 out of 5 stars
Terrific Cal Ripken book,
By Eddie Murray (Birmingham, AL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Longest Season (Hardcover)
If you're an Orioles fan, the 1988 season was a horrible time. The O's lost 21 in a row to start the year. Cal Ripken retells this season in a children's book that teaches perseverance.I bought this book for my 6-month-old son, knowing he won't be able to understand it for several years. The pictures are outstanding. (If you're an O's fan like myself, you'll get a kick out of seeing familiar names drawn as art.) And the message is a positive one. I highly recommend the book. One question, Cal: When's the book on the 1989 "Why Not?" Orioles?

This review is from: The Longest Season (Hardcover)
Ripken tells his story of a frustating beginning to a season. The story is interesting to young ball players who often do not find instant success when they begin their own careers.The beautiful illustrations in this book would make it worth the cost of the purchase at twice the price. Should be in the library of every elementarty school. |
