Description
"This rousing tribute should resonate with a wide audience. --School Library Journal (starred review) Before he was Hammerin' Hank, Henry Aaron was a young boy growing up in Mobile, Alabama, with what seemed like a foolhardy dream: to be a big-league baseball player. He didn't have a bat. He didn't have a ball. And there wasn't a single black ballplayer in the major leagues. But by product of this could stop him. In a captivating biography of Henry Aaron's young life, Matt Tavares pays inspiring homage to one of baseball's all-time greats.
