Here's what others are saying about "Pitcher's Hands is OUT!" |
"I bought Pitcher's Hands is OUT! to read to my Little Leaguer as a bedtime story. After reading the first chapter to him one night, I returned to my den and finished the book in one sitting. This is a wonderful story for anyone." G.D. "What a delightful read! It has couldn't-put-it-down/pager-turner quality. I'm either obsessive/compulsive or it's a (very) good story. Every character, every rule was there from my sand lot days. I'm old enough to have lived this history and you nailed it." R.R. "I read Pitcher's Hands is Out! to my class. They couldn't wait from one day to the next to find out what happened to Scooter next. Great life lessons, great history lessons. great story. You have given the children a chance to feel this history, not just know it. Send me your next one, please." J.D.V. "This father-son writing team... has made a literary double play." Grand Rapids Press. "If you liked John Gresham's story about the Depression (A Painted House), you will also like this one." Banner-News (Indiana) "The Bylsma father-son writing team have created a wonderful story - rich in historical detail, full of excitement, warmth and humor - a story that readers of all ages will not want to end." L.D. Editor/Publisher "Dear Uncle Dan and Grampa B: My favorite character in Pitcher's Hands is Casey because you named him/her after me, didn't you? My teacher read to us in class. We really liked it. The kids all teased me when you had me kiss Scooter at the end." Kasey Bylsma "Pitcher's Hands is a must book for all youngsters and oldsters, too. ...letting kids know the hardships during the Depression years and how lucky or unlucky they are living in this era (I think we had more fun back then). The book brought back many childhood memories: the pick-up games, the importance of a championship game, improvising for our own equipment, green rivers (lime phosphates), gathering eggs from the chicken coop. I would love to see kids experience the life shown in Pitcher's Hands is Out!." Coach K (member Illinois High School Coaches Hall of Fame).
