Baseball Hour


TITLE: Baseball Hour
AUTHOR: Carol Nevius
ILLUSTRATOR: Bill Thomson
PUBLISHER: Marshall Cavendish Children
COPYRIGHT: 2008
This book is about children practicing baseball. It shows all that would go on in a baseball practice from the warm-up to the closing team chant. It's written with only a couple lines per page and the text rhymes. Primary and elementary aged children will enjoy this book.
When I saw this book on the shelf at the library, I was in awe of the beautiful illustrations. My son and I read this multiple times. Besides being a great read, I appreciate the fact that the illustrations show both girls and boys playing baseball.
