Greystone Books,Canada Baseball's Top 100: The Game's Greatest Records
Book SynopsisBaseball's Top 100 is the ultimate collection of achievements on the diamond. From the most grand slams in a career to the most consecutive stolen bases -- the best of the best is all here. Sports writer and trivia master Kerry Banks has scoured all the record books and selected the top 100 of Major League Baseball's most fantastic feats. Many significant records belong to the most familiar names in baseball -- home-run king Barry Bonds, slugging champ Babe Ruth, hit machine Joe DiMaggio -- but Banks highlights previously overlooked record holders as well. Did you know that the player who hit the most doubles in one season is an obscure citizen of "Red Sox Nation" named Earl Webb who started his career as a pitcher? And, bet you haven't heard of Harvey Haddix. He holds the record for most consecutive batters retired by a pitcher in one game -- and he did it all while suffering from a head cold! This is a must-have for fans of the "Grand Old Game."

Annick Press Ltd Baseballogy: Supercool Facts You Never Knew
Book SynopsisThe most unusual baseball facts you'll ever find! Behind the game lies a wealth of science, folklore, mathematics, psychology--and a very colorful past. Whether they are die-hard fans or casual spectators, readers will be captivated by this collection of fascinating, little-known facts. For example did you know that the yarn in a single baseball is long enough to reach from the street to the top of the Empire State Building or that in the old days playoff tickets were sold for people to stand in the outfield: fans might move to help the home team but not budge an inch for opposing players. With lots of humorous, colorful illustrations, charts, and graphs, Baseballogy explores such diverse topics as the materials used to make the balls (including fish eyes, once used for the core!), freak injuries (one player was stabbed by a bat!), and the chances of making it to "the show" (1 in about 14,000 baseball playing kids will get to the big leagues). Entertaining, informative, and highly visual, Baseballogy is the perfect sports book for all kids--especially reluctant boy readers.

Creative Company,US Yusra Swims
Book SynopsisThe true story of Yusra Mardini, as portrayed in the Netflix movie ?The Swimmers?. Yusra Mardini loves to swim. As a girl in Damascus, she dreams about swimming for her country in the Olympics. But then war intervenes. Julie Abery?s spare, rhyming verse relates the story of Yusra?s journey from her beloved home in Syria to a sinking boat on the Aegean to Germany, where Yusra finally swims again and realizes her dream. "Spare, rhythmic verse gives the narrative a gripping and dramatic feel, while Deng?s illustrations convey the struggles of war and displacement." ? Kirkus Reviews "A talented swimmer with Olympic dreams, Yusra Mardini trains daily, despite unrest in her native Syria. When the conflict intensifies, her father arranges for her to evacuate to Europe. She flees by bus, and then by sea, where her swimming skills are put to good use towing a sinking rowboat to shore. When she finally arrives in Berlin, she begins training again and eventually participates in the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Abery''s spare, rhyming text recounts Mardini''s real-life story, touching on the traumas (''Treading water, / Gripping rope. / Yusra swims, / Keeping hope.'') and triumphs (''Refugee / Olympic team. / Yusra swims. / Achieves her dream.'') of her young life. Deng''s digitally enhanced acrylic and colored-pencil illustrations favor blues, greens, and browns and depict both the serenity of the pool and the severe realities of civil war and refugee life. An excellent addition to the growing number of picture books about refugees, this is appended with a note about Mardini, who currently serves as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador." ? Booklist
