  | Full Text Reviews: School Library Journal - 04/01/2013 Gr 2–4—Focusing on the baseball organizations that have played in the World Series, these titles provide chronologically organized information about the featured teams. Key players are introduced in a few sentences. Some unique features of the set are the chapters on how each team got its name. Fans will be disappointed to see that in the sections about each team's stadium, the spread-size photos do not always depict a full scene or the park at all. Red Sox, for example, presents only a corner of the famous Fenway Park; Yankee and Cardinals show helicopter views of each team's city, but not the stadiums themselves. Otherwise, the photos are interesting and full of action. Young fans who want to relish the particulars will only want to read the book that represents their favorite team. - Copyright 2013 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
