Red Sox Fan Must Have! July 9, 2009 Natalie J. Petro (Charlotte, NC) If you are a part of Red Sox Nation (my husband has been a member for over 30 years and I over 10). Our kids love the Soxs too and our little guy loves this book! It is very well written!
Great book January 6, 2009 Pompom (Ireland) This is a great book for Red Sox fans of any age. It's just a really nice book to have. It has great illustrations and a nice simple history.
Collectors item for ALL ages January 7, 2008 Ancoro Imparo (MA USA) This book honors in simple verse and vivid picture, the triumph of the underdog. For young and old, it celebrates that persistence can materialize and that "losers" can win and that even odd-balls can overcome poor odds. Give this as a gift of encouragement to those (male and female) that may "think" there is no hope and let them witness that even when they feel as though they may "standing out in the field, alone and hopeless" the power of BELIEF can, will and does manifest into a life victory. A sweet story of success against all odds.
Wicked Awesome December 30, 2007 S. Masyada (Gainesville, FL) My husband and I are expecting our first child in June. I bought this as a gift for my husband to read to the baby. He was so excited to receive this! He read the book and immediately declared it, "Wicked Awesome." Get it! Every other line rhymes, and they are are not simplistic. We both have our degrees in education and feel this a good book to help develop children's personal histories.
Get it!
Heirloom gift for Red Sox fans November 9, 2007 N. Curtis (PA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Our small grandson received one as he joined his dad and grandfathers (yes, one lives near Denver) for the current World Series. In his Red Sox regalia, he wanted it read to him again and again. His great-grandfather had seen the last Series before this one, just like the book talks about, and anyone with children who need to be raised as True Believers should make sure they have a copy to pass on to their children in the future.
