Tulip at the Bat

32 pp. | Little | April, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-316-61280-7 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Amiko Hirao. Inspired by "Casey at the Bat," rhyming text describes how Tulip the tutu-wearing hippo wins the World Series for the New York Pets, thus disappointing Boston Beasts fans. Hirao's busy, energetic illustrations capture the excitement of the action. Lewis's dense and tongue-twisting text, arrhythmic at times, relies on lingo and references only seasoned baseball fans will appreciate.
