by S.A. Kramer (Author)

This Step into Reading Step 5 Sports Reader profiles the greatest hitters in baseball: Ted Williams, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Hank Aaron.

Now updated to include Miguel Cabrera, who made baseball history by achieving the Triple Crown in 2012, and up-and-comer Mike Trout.

This star-studded survey remains contemporary by addressing the use of performance-enhancing drugs by some of baseball's top stars.

Step 5 Readers tell stories in chapters using longer paragraphs and are ideal for children who want to take the plunge into chapter books but still like colorful pictures.
