Review
In the latest of the Baseball Card Adventure series by Dan Gutman, Joe 'Stosh' Stoshack uses his power to time travel using baseball cards to go back to 1951, when Bobby Thomson hit the famous Shot Heard Round. It is the home that wins the National League pennant for the New York Giants.
Both Gutman and sports fans will gravitate to this latest in the Baseball Card Adventure series. Wonderfully, each of these titles stands on its own and once a reader reads about their favorite hero they will want to explore others. The font and line spacing is just right for students leaping from chapter books with pictures to solid chapter books.
A solid addition for the sports readers.
Overall Book Score: very good
