Summary: GREAT BOOK FOR SPORTS FANS BY:KELSEY K
Review: Honus and Me is a great book. It's about this little boy named Joe. He loves to collect baseball cards. One day he bought a pack of cards and found a one-of-a-kind Honus Wagner card, What he didn't know was that the card had a special power, ( You need to read the book to find out) My favorite character was Joe. He was a good kid who loved baseball. I like him a lot because I am a big sports fan also. My favorite part of the book was when Joe played in the major league game. He got to experience something that no other kid has done before. I would encourage SPORTS FANS to read this book. Even if you aren't a big sports fan I still think you would really enjoy this book.

Summary: Home Run!!!!!
Review: The book that I read was really good. it is called Honus and Me by Dan Gutman. If you like baseball,then I think you would like this book. It is about a kid names Stosh who plays baseball, he's also a big baseball card collector. One day, he finds a Honus Wagner card! (these are very rare) Stosh isn't rich but he wouldn't call himself poor. His parents split up when he was younger and his mom doesn't make that much money. The card that he was holding was worth half a million dollars! Stosh goes to bed that night and wishes that he could go back in time and meet Honus himself. He feels a tingling sensation in the tips of his fingers just before he falls asleep. It turns out that he has the ability to go back in time! This adventure continues throughout the book as Stosh and Honus play in the world series and sign autograpghs. This action packed adventure is really good and everyone should read it. Even if you don't like baseball, you should also read other books by Dan Gutman.

Summary: Home Run!!!!!
Review: This is one of the best in the Joe Stoshack series, the boy who travels in time to meet some of baseball's legends. Gutman excels at evoking baseball's early years, when the game was more intimate and perhaps rougher. Gutman really did his research: "People were hanging all over the fence, and there were seats in front [italics] of the fence. The only thing keeping fans away from the playing field was a rope." Gutman also includes some play by play descriptions from the 1909 Series. Gutman supplements these descriptions with newspaper clipings, great photos (including one of Wagner and Cobb, and what I assume is the Detroit field, "Bennett Park," in 1909), a reproduction of the T-206 Wagner, stats, a 2-page baseball "tips" piece written by Wagner in 1950, and a short section that separates the book's facts from fiction. There's a minor romantic subplot that seemed a bit contrived, but it's incidental to the main action here. Wagner comes off as an admirable man with a wonderful sense of humor, and Gutman, as usual, shares with us his great affection for the game.
