Barry Bonds: Mr. Excitement (The Achievers) (Paperback)

by Jeff Savage (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
Grade 4-6. Barry Bonds has the distinction of being named baseball's National League Most Valuable Player three times, making him one of the game's biggest stars. This straightforward, no-nonsense biography focuses on the difficulties Bonds had growing up under the shadow of a famous father?Bobby Bonds?who also was an outstanding baseball player. From there the book moves on to the stuff of standard sports biographies: early frustrations, eventual triumphs, marriage, kids, divorce, and expectations for the future, taking readers through the 1995 season. There are full-color and black-and-white photos of Bonds and other players in action and a chart of the athlete's college and minor- and major-league statistics. Sure to be popular with baseball fans.?Todd Morning, Schaumburg Township Public Library, IL
