Jack and Larry is a wondrous book about Larry, a baseball mascot who never wore a costume, and about Jack Graney, a Canadian baseball player who gained fame with the Cleveland Naps (later, Indians). Readers who love dogs will love Larry, the bull terrier who put on a tremendous pregame show for all American League teams.
Baseball fans will celebrate with Jack Graney, the leadoff batter who reached base a phenomenal number of times. Readers will suffer with him, too, and with the entire team as it strives to climb out of the basement and grab the elusive pennant. This story about overcoming tough times makes readers laugh out loud at the ups and weep softly at the downs. And when the Cleveland team finally wins the pennant- jubilant cheer!
This uplifting story of a man, a dog, a baseball team, and the race for the pennant will touch the hearts of readers both you and old, and everywhere between. For ages 10-100.
