The Lost Package
"The heartwarming story of a package that gets lost, then found, and an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at what happens at the post office. Not all packages make it to where they're meant to go. This package starts at the post office. It's measured, weighed and placed on a truck with care. But on its way to its destination. . . it gets lost. All packages are sent with intention but sometimes, they need a little help making it to their destinations. Follow one package that loses its way and discover a friendship tale that proves distance can't always keep us apart." -- publisher
When Jackie and Hank Met
"Jackie and Hank were born eight years and one thousand miles apart. Nobody knew these babies would grow up and play baseball. Nobody knew Jackie and Hank would meet and become heroes. Jackie Robinson and Hank Greenberg were two very different people. But they both became Major League Baseball players, and they both faced a lot of the same challenges in their lives and careers. For Jackie, it was because of his skin color For Hank, it was because of his religion. On May 17, 1947 these two men met for the first time colliding at first base in a close play. While the crowd urged them to fight, Jackie and Hank chose a different path. This is the story of two men who went on to break the barriers of race and religion in American sports and became baseball legends in the process. Beautiful text by Cathy Goldberg Fishman is paired with sumptuous paintings by Mark Elliott. Generous back matter material includes a photo and prose biography of each man, timelines, quotes, resources to learn more, and a selected bibliography." -- publisher
