Casey at the Bat: A Ballad of the Republic Sung in the Year 1888

40 pp. | Simon | March, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-689-85494-3 $$16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by C. F. Payne. A red-haired, mustachioed, barrel-chested, larger-than-life Casey stars in this new picture book edition of the beloved baseball ballad. Payne's illustrations swell with love for the game--the grass, the equipment, the period uniforms are all carefully rendered--as they capture the raging emotions of the duel between the gangly, terrified young pitcher and the self-confident star.
Reviewer: CHristine Sarrazin
