Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Baseball Biographies for Kids
Dean Burrell · 2024
78/100
👍 Worth It
Callisto Kids has put together a well-targeted sports biography collection that works especially well as a gateway for reluctant readers who already love baseball — the short chapters, diverse roster of legends, and interactive starting lineup feature make it easy to pick up and put down. The entries are necessarily brief and seasoned fans will want more depth, but as an inspiring introduction to the sport's greatest figures it hits the right notes.
