Good Book for Little Baseball Fans

My son is 4 1/2 and loves baseball. He seems to really enjoy this book and after we read it he talked about the importance of practice. I wouldn't say it's a "fascinating" book, but it gives us another baseball book to read with good tips.

My two-year-old son loves it

My two-year-old son loves baseball and loves this book. It's an excellent book to help a little one learn some of the technical baseball terms.

Great Book

I bought this for my grandson Nick who loves baseball. He is 6 and he loved the book.

Great for all ages!

This is finally a baseball book that even a parent can learn from and enjoy. My son, age 5, loved this book. It is an interesting story as well as educational. You will learn all about baseball from "choking up on the bat" to running the bases. It is very informative and fun!! I highly recommend!!!
