As a rule, I don’t critique kids’ books. I just find it too difficult to write more words in a review than are contained in the book itself (especially for the 4 to 8-year-old crowd), and writing about illustrations will only go so far.
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.
