Summary

Babe Ruth, incredible ballplayer. You might know that he was widely considered baseball's greatest hitter. But what about his feat of pitching to himself and blasting 25 straight home runs? Or his knack for removing kids' spleens and kidneys despite not having any medical training? You're about to be treated to the Lieographical aspects of Babe Ruth's life, in this funny, lighthearted, "all that didn't happen" take on this larger than life man. The book ends with a short--but true--account of Babe's life--just enough to encourage kids to find out more on this important historical figure. But even if readers have already learned about the Babe, the wacky stories in this tall-tales book will be even more enjoyable
