Description - Brothers at Bat: The True Story of an Amazing All-Brother Baseball Team by Audrey Vernick
The Acerra family had sixteen children, including twelve ball-playing boys. It was the 1930s, and many families had lots of kids. But only one had enough to field a baseball team . . . with three on the bench! The Acerras were the longest-playing all-brother team in baseball history. They loved the game, but more important, they cared for and supported each other and stayed together as a team. Nothing life threw their way could stop them. Full of action, drama, and excitement, this never-before-told true story is vividly brought to life by Audrey Vernick's expert storytelling and Steven Salerno's stunning vintage-style art. AGES: 4 to 8 AUTHOR: Audrey Vernick is the author of several picture books as well as the middle grade novel Water Balloon. Steven Salerno has illustrated many picture books, several of which he wrote. This is his first about baseball. Colour throughout
