so-soI read this for the @bookriot #readharder challenge because it's about sports and double plus bonus it's an all-ages comic. I was not overly enthralled by the book because it shows two games from Paige's long career (one from the Negro League in 1929 and an exhibition game in 1944). They also touch on life in the Jim Crow South in rather heartbreaking ways, but everything felt a little glazed over, I would have loved a longer book.
