Goodnight Baseball

Part sentimental look at a boy’s trip to the ball game with his father, part nod to “Goodnight Moon,” the rhyming text and sepia toned illustrations begin by describing all the things they see and do as spectators at the big game, and concludes by saying goodnight to everything and everyone as they leave, right up to, “Goodnight, Daddy. Goodnight, moon. Goodnight, baseball, safe in my room.”  The final illustrations shows just what a baseball fan this boy is, as we see his bedroom, fully decorated with baseball bed, baseball bedspread, baseball carpet, baseball lamp, baseball toys, and the full moon out the window perceived as a baseball as well.  Sure to be enjoyed by young baseball fans.
