Babe and Me: A Baseball Card Adventure

(4) 4-6 Thirteen-year-old Joe, who time traveled into baseball's past in two previous books, visits 1932 to learn if Babe Ruth really predicted his legendary World Series homer. Joe's father comes along, too, hoping to make a financial profit from the experience. The book convincingly captures Babe's oversized personality, but nearly every plot turn is contrived to get Joe smack in the center of things.
