Customer Reviews

Good for die hard fans

We bought this for my father who has been the biggest Red Sox fan for over 65 years. He enjoyed it but the amount of information was a little light.

Red Sox fever

I thought this was a great book with flexibility for the ages. You can keep a child's attention with the bright colors and rhymes, but it also has the factual information for an adult.

B is for Boston, Baseball and Boston Bulldogs

This alphabet of trivia in re the Red Sox will delight everyone, regardless of where they are from or what other teams they support. Readers of all ages will love this one. The author clearly has a wonderful sense of humor and a gift for satire as well. Boston pulled 2 stellar victories in recent times. The Red Sox won the World Series in 2004 and really swept things up in 2007. Hats off to the Boston Red Sox! Go, Boston! We're gonna paint this town RED for sure!

Funny

Any Red Sox fan is sure to love this alphabet of trivia for the history of the Red Sox. My oldest son loves, "Q - for question..."Why oh why did Bill Buckner let that ground ball through his legs?"
