Just Like Josh Gibson

Just Like Josh Gibson - Angela Johnson

Just Like Josh Gibson

Coretta Scott King Award-winning author Johnson and artist Peck deliver a beautiful picture book about an African-American girl growing up in the 1940s who wants to play baseball like her hero, Negro League player Josh Gibson. Full color.
The story goes...

Grandmama could hit the ball a mile,

catch anything that was thrown,

and do everything else --

just like Josh Gibson.

But unfortunately, no matter how well a girl growing up in the 1940s played the game of baseball, she would have faced tremendous challenges. These challenges are not unlike those met by the legendary Josh Gibson, arguably the best Negro-League player to never make it into the majors.

In a poignant tribute to anyone who's had a dream deferred, two-time Coretta Scott King Award-winning author Angela Johnson and celebrated artist Beth Peck offer up this reminder -- that the small steps made by each of us inspire us all.
