102 pp. | Random | February, 2009 | Library ISBN 978-0-375-95603-4 $11.99 | Paper ISBN 978-0-375-85603-7 $4.99
(3) K-3 Stepping Stone True Stories series. Illustrated by Tim Jessell. This unabashedly Red Sox-centric biography of Babe Ruth will hit all the right spots for fans of the formerly "cursed" franchise. It's written simply enough for younger elementary school students, while packing in a good amount of information and conveying the tension of championship games. The black-and-white illustrations are based on iconic photographs of Babe and the Sox.
