YES TO BASEBALL
I bought this for my son and when he saw it he was so excited! Not only does he love baseball but math is also his favorite subject in school. The quality of the book, much like everything from National Geographic is a great quality. The concept of “learning” while you’re enjoying something you love so much is a great motivator for kiddos alike but especially boy’s I’ve learned. My son started reading this book almost immediately, turning the pages and looking at pictures… identifying players and brushing up on stats. “Hey mom, did you know _______” I think went on until bedtime. So… not only does this book help with math, I think it does a really great job helping kids with reading. It keeps them engaged with facts, trivia, and so much more!

Great book for baseball lovers
The pictures are great and the layout is very nice. There’s also an index in the back for the math topics. My son likes this book a lot and it has sparked a lot of discussions about the science and math of baseball. Ex: When my son was learning about decimals, we used the information in the book to calculate all the various stats in the book.

The book is for a gift for my grandson but I will have to explain why it looks the way it does. It arrived in a box with another book, which had no damage at all. The shipping box was undamaged as well. Too troublesome to try to return for an undamaged replacement. That was the biggest disappointment for this order
