Roberto Clemente: Young Ball Player,
By
This review is from: Roberto Clemente: Young Ball Player (Childhood of Famous Americans) (Paperback)
My son read this book. It was an early chapter book, and not difficult to read. Factual, although not very exciting. I had to "make" my son keep reading (for a school biography book report). When he was done, he said he liked the book, but was not inspired to find out more.
5.0 out of 5 stars
