Children's titles

March 13, 2007

So here’s a roundup of five children’s titles from the Ocean County Register, including Out of the Ballpark, by Alex Rodriguez; The Longest Season by Cal Ripken Jr.; Louis Sockalexis: Native American Baseball Pioneer, by Bill Wise; Batter Up, Wombat, by Helen Lester; and yet another version of Casey at the Bat, this one by prolific author Dan Gutman.
