Customer Reviews

Very Entertaining

My 4th grader has read all the books in this series and I think they are all great. The idea of going back in time and mixing in Amercian historical facts is very well done. It provides a good basis for further discussion with your young reader about some of the issues brought forward in the book. At the end the author identifies fact from fiction and provides some more detail on where the material came from. This particular book has an interesting twist to it that I wasn't sure I would like, but found it the most enjoyable of the 3 I have read thus far.

TOTALLY AWESOME BOOK!!!!!!!!

Mickey & Me book series

I purchased the book as a gift for my children. They love the series and have all of them. I highly recommend the series. It engages the minds of the readers in a fictional, imaginative way for those avid baseball lovers.

Great book,!

My son doesnt like to sit and read but with ALL the baseball card adventure books he reads in the car, in bed, at the dinner table and in front of the TV! Who woulda thought!!!!

The Best Of The Series

I read all the "...and Me" books and this one was definitely the best. It had the biggest plot twist in the series that REALLY surprised me.
