This story is mostly composed of letters received and sent between a 12 year old boy and a Professional Baseball player named Charlie Banks. There is lots of comedy, exaggeration, pleas and even lying in these letters but they show just how much an avid youth would do to try and get to meet his idol and maybe become ballboy. It takes you back to the 40s in Brooklyn and shows how some kids were bullied back then and how they attempted to overcome the problem. The two corresponders develop a lasting relationship through their letters which are highly entertaining to read. I really enjoyed it!
