WORLD SERIES, by John R. Tunis

July 23, 2009

Tags: Sports, Classic, Ages 8-14

The Dodgers are playing in the World Series. In game 1, Roy Tucker, their star right fielder, is hit in the head and is hospitalized.

Will he be able to come back and play in any of the games?

As the Series rolls along, things start to look grim for the Dodgers. They're not getting any of the breaks.

Will they be able to mount a comeback with their backs against the wall?

John R. Tunis answers these questions and many more, each answer beautiful and flowing. Even though it was written in 1941, it isn't outdated. Tunis crafts a classic, a great read for anybody who likes baseball, or any other sport.

RATING 4 out of 5.
