cool book

Love that book! I like how there is so much detail. I like that you had a fact sheet at the end with a picture of babe Ruth. I like that you made it about babe and him saving baseball. Babe is my favorite player. When you had to look up facts about him I bet took really hard. You are my favorite author. And you are my fourth grade teacher. I like a lot of your books. But this is the #1 book that I like. Michael p. Holland, PA

Babe Ruth review

I think this book is down right enjoying I'm not saying its good just because he's my teacher but he's a fabulous author I think that we would always want to learn about educated books and non-fiction books are enjoying also. Frank Murphy is my favorite author. Rachael L.

FANTASTIC BOOK!!!

I love this book! I love how the author makes Babe come alive for kids. I am a teacher and have read this book to my class. All of my students loved hearing it and have read it again and again. We really felt like we got to know Babe and looked up to him so much more than we already did!!! Frank Murphy does an excellent job telling the sad story of baseball and how it did almost die, but he leaves the reader feeling very positive and inspired to be their own kind of hero!!!

GR8 BOOK

Frank Murphy (Mr. Murphy) is my math and language arts teacher in school! Is is a gr8 writer and I reccomend this book for kids who love baseball! Mr. Murphy has taught me how to write and I am greatful for that. this is a gr8 book - read it! ~Griff

Author Commentary

All of my books are written with an intention to "breathe life into history". I want kids to read about historical figures and learn about these icons' personalities. Finding obscure facts that are interesting, striking and funny make these books nutritious (for the mind!). I wrote this book because I wanted to show some new sides to Babe Ruth. Babe really did save baseball - from inspiring kids to changing the game of baseball with his titanic home runs. Enjoy the book. For further Ruth reading check out Robert Burleigh's powerful picture book Home Run! Another new title is Lynn Curlee's picture book about baseball parks... Whack!
