Calico Joe: A Novel | John Grisham
Pickpick

If you are a baseball fan, you are going to like this novel. Joe Castle was hit in the head with a baseball. Life changes for both the Warren Tracey and Joe Castle after that incident. I liked Warren‘s son Paul and the story behind the life of the two men. 4/5 ⭐️

This tribute to Jerry Pinkney is just what I needed. A powerful & beautiful, expression of grief to be shared, loved and adored.

I think this book could be an excellent introduction for children to nature and animals in the woods. This book also contains the tough topic of grief and while I wouldn‘t do it a whole group lesson it may be important for a specific child to hear.

The serendipity of baseball and aging engulfs this short narrative about an estranged father and son that reads like a Vin Scully anecdote between pitches of an at bat. Grisham‘s story won‘t change your life, but - like a good ball game - makes for a nice couple of hours.

This book was rather sad as it had a very sad theme. The illustration style of this book was also very different because the author uses a lot of line in the drawings. The illustrations were really beautiful though and really help capture the story the author was telling.
