Product Description
When Joe Stoshack's dad ends up in the hospital after a car accident, he has two words to say to his son: Mickey Mantle. For Stosh has a special power -- with a baseball card in hand, he can travel back in time. And his dad has a rare card -- Mantle's valuable 1951 rookie card. "I've been thinking about it for a long time. Go back to 1951. You're the only one who can do it," Dad whispers. That night Stosh grips the card and prepares for another magical adventure. But when he opens his eyes, he's not in Yankee Stadium -- he's in Milwaukee on June 8, 1944. And how he wound up there is not half as surprising as what he finds!

 Very Entertaining September 26, 2008
My 4th grader has read all the books in this series and I think they are all great. The idea of going back in time and mixing in Amercian historical facts is very well done. It provides a good basis for further discussion with your young reader about some of the issues brought forward in the book. At the end the author identifies fact from fiction and provides some more detail on where the material came from.
This particular book has an interesting twist to it that I wasn't sure I would like, but found it the most enjoyable of the 3 I have read thus far.
 Surprise Mickeys May 31, 2008
Some great parts of the book - Mickey throwing a potato onto the field and Stosh meeting Mickey Mantle without knowing it. Great book for anyone who likes baseball and history.

My Antonia January 8, 2008
Excellent description of the western prairie. Realistic stories of immigrant life and struggles. Memorable characters caught in the social constrictions of that time and place.
