[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-10-22 Summary: Great story about a great man! ... I can't say enough good things about this book.

Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-04-11 Summary: Jackie Robinson ... I bought this to use in my 6th grade reading classroom.

Since it is at a lower reading level, students have success in building skills to use in higher level texts. This book is a good addition to the grade 1-6 classroom library. ...more
