Review by Horn Book Review

With Mark Stewart. The numerous photographs are the strong point of this series, which is otherwise long on filler (e.g, doggerel verses about one player on each team and an "ABCs of Baseball" page where readers try to identify things beginning with a particular letter). Double-page spreads showing baseball cards from the authors' collections are a plus. Websites. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Smart About Sports titles: Meet the Astros, Meet the Cardinals, Meet the Cubs, Meet the Dodgers, Meet the Rays, Meet the Red Sox, and Meet the Yankees.] Copyright 2010 of The Horn Book, Inc.
