Good book about baseball and one of the founding fathers of the game. Babe Ruth changed the game forever and will always be referred to as the best player ever. This book offers great illustrations of certain important moments in Ruth's career and enhance the text.
This book was about the start of Babe Ruth's baseball career. How he started with the Boston Red Sox as a pitcher and then switched to hitting. He made a record for 29 homeruns! Later on he went to be with the Yankees, they opened a new stadium and sort of made a nickname of the stadium after him. While playing for the Yankees he signed baseballs and hid them all over the city for children. He was the first player to hit a home run at the new stadium.

This book tells the story of Rose and Morris Michtom and their creation of the very first teddy bear. They were inspired by a Washington Post cartoon depicting a hunting adventure that President Theodore Roosevelt had gone on, during which he had demanded that a bear (who had been captured and tied to a tree for the president to shoot) be released and given his freedom. The couple even wrote to the president, seeking his permission to use his name for their toy bear: Teddy's Bear.
