Passport to Reading Level 3Newly independent readers will love this classic baseball story now illustrated in full color with brand new artwork!Mike has a special relationship with his dog, Harry. They can read each other's minds! Harry is able to help Mike out with tips about the opposing players on the baseball field, but Mike's having trouble with his pitches--and the buddies need to work together to save the game!
Editorial : From Publishers Weekly In this addition to Christopher's The Dog That series, young Mike is scheduled to pitch against the toughest team in the league, but he's pitching wild. Mike once again calls on his dog Harry, who happens to be gifted with ESP. Harry can telepathically communicate information on each batter's weaknesses and strengths to his master. This works early on, but by the game's important climax, Mike has gained confidence and is guided by his own instincts. He pitches a no-hitter. Although this is a sports fantasy directed at the early chapter-book audience, it strains credulity and is so predictable and preachy that all but the most diligent fans of the series will lose interest early on. Ages 6-8. Copyright 1988 Reed Business Information, Inc.
I think I bought it 27 about years ago. Great program to help you loose weight. Luckily I purchased this book last week and by reading this book I am super pleased. This book offers the tip of the iceberg and little else. However, if you are looking for a story that shows the world through a child-who-is-becoming-an-adolescent's eyes, growth in the main character, a compelling plot that holds your attention and leaves you wanting to know more about the characters, then this is the book for you.
I thought it portrayed the War in enough in a way that it gives adolescent readers a view into the abominable realities of Nazi Germany without being too haunting for those "younger" readers. If you're looking for a straightforward numerical analysis textbook, don't waste your money on this book like I did.. No Momma's Boy is not for the faint of heart.
