Overview
The perfect start to any day is with ushers in nightgowns and Cornflakes instead of popcorn. Join Jimmy as he experiences morning baseball during WWII.
Based on real historical events, this fictional book for ages 5 to 8 celebrates America’s pastime and resilience through the eyes of one Black child.
Jimmy’s family loves going to Milwaukee Brewers games together, but all that changes during World War II when Pop goes overseas to fight and Ma starts working nights in a factory. Then Jimmy has a chance meeting with the team’s owner and helps inspire a new idea: morning baseball games!
Jimmy is about to experience baseball in a whole new way (it may involve Cornflakes). A perfect solution so night shift workers can end their day with a game while others begin theirs.
Written by Judy Campbell-Smith, Baseball for Breakfast celebrates family, fun, and being American during a turbulent time when people were tested for their resilience.
