Revisiting a Childhood Hero,
By Thomas Emslie (Montpelier, VT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Say Hey!: A Song of Willie Mays (Jump at the Sun) (Hardcover)
A winner for adults as well as children! I grew up during the 1960s with baseball heroes like Willie Mays and Sandy Koufax, and reading this book with my two neices (4 and 7) was like revisiting a much-loved summer house or vacation spot. Although the girls knew very little about baseball, they loved the wonderful illustrations, and the lilting sing-song rhymes about the great Willie Mays. This book would be especially appreciated by children from ethnic groups who don't always see themselves represented in major league sports: Willie didn't harp about race or racial discrimination, he just played the best game of baseball he could. Highly recommended.
