Books by Blei: You Never Heard of Willie Mays?

You Never Heard of Willie Mays?
by Jonah Winter

Recommended by: Jove'n W.
This book is about a little African American boy that grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. He looked up to Joe DiMaggio and his name was Willie Mays. This book shows how Willie started in the Negro League and ended up going to the big leagues and breaking records and proving blacks are just as good as whites. He was in the army and still played baseball. It also showed his records and his career highlights. Willie became one of the best black baseball players of all time.

This book was: Awesome!

I would recommend this book to: Larry.

I rate this book:
