Oliver's Game (Tavares baseball books)

Author-illustrator Matt Tavares hits the ball out of the park with a luminously illustrated tale about the joy of baseball, generational bonds, and the immutable power of dreams.

Oliver Hall loves baseball. He loves the ritual of helping out in his grandfather€s store, Hall€s Nostalgia, and he loves listening to Grandpa Hall€s innumerable baseball stories. But one day, Oliver makes a startling discovery. It seems his grandfather has kept one very special story a secret: his own. With stunning black-and-white and sepia-tone illustrations and a heartwarming narrative, Matt Tavares portrays one man€s lifelong love of the game, and the enduring legacy he passes on to his grandchild.
