Fabulous Book

My son said: "I never realized there was so much to know about playing baseball." He loved this book and he learned a lot more than his coach had the time to teach him. The chapter on baserunning strategies was paticularly useful. The author also emphasizes a healthy attitude in playing the game. I strongly recommend this book.

GREAT Book!!

A terrific baseball book full of playing tips and strategies. It teaches kids not only how to play the game but also to understand the game as they play it. Each position is taught separately, with jokes and trivia interspersed to make it easy for kids to read.

Kids will enjoy...

This is one book kids will read themselves. It is written as if the author is speaking to kids in the dugout rather than speaking to an adult. The auhtor keeps it light, and sprinkles the instructional parts with humor and entertaining baseball trivia. Kids and their parents can enjoy this book together.

Wonderful, helpful book chock full of trivia!

This is a great book for any kid interested in playing baseball. Kids will get step-by-step instructions and explanations of the how-to's of the game. The book is also full of baseball trivia that all kids and adults will love! I heartily recommend this book to little league coaches, kids, and anyone with any interest in kids playing baseball
