What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Great fun.“—Kiss the Book Jr.
“Kids, especially those who are sports-inclined, will like The Ball Book. Reluctant readers will like the short sentences and the simple words. Teachers will get loads of giggles when reading to her/his class; high volume laughs will occur because of the unintended slang. Even kids a few years older than the stated age range, will want to read and re-read this factual picture book.“—Kid-Lit Reviews
