My son brought this home from school--it was an original copy, from the first publication in 1967. Love the old pictures in it! We enjoyed reading this together.... it was a bit difficult for us to follow all the baseball talk, which seemed pretty authentic to me, because neither of us is really into sports. But the story itself was entertaining! ( )
