Tavares masterfully depicts, with quick verse and beautiful illustrations, the world in which the two siblings came of age.... This is a strong overview of a remarkable athlete. Martinez's unbelievable statistics are included at the end of the book. A wonderful introduction to a truly special player. -School Library Journal (starred review) Tavares highlights their warm filial relationship, inviting readers to understand how Ramón is challenged by loneliness in America, mostly because his lack of English prevents him from communicating. ... The gouache and watercolor paintings lovingly depict both players, from boyhood to adulthood. Tavares captures some of the iconic images of Pedro: pitching with intensity, goofing off in the bullpen, and even being taped to a pole by his teammates as a prank. -Horn Book Tavares' latest baseball profile, featuring Pedro Martínez, is as much an homage to the love between brothers as it is a biography.... Concluding stats top off this winning title. -Booklist Tavares's luminous paintings pair with accessible prose arranged into verselike passages to create a vivid portrait of two contemporary athletes. -Publishers Weekly Watercolor, gouache and pencil illustrations depict the emotional fervor of the action.... A warm portrait of a modern baseball icon. -Kirkus Reviews Fraternal mentoring and emulation forms a cohesive theme throughout. -Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books The story of how Pedro Martinez came to achieve that status is inspiring, and author/illustrator Matt Tavares captures it perfectly for younger readers. -from Kendal Rautzhan, Tavares masterfully depicts, with quick verse and beautiful illustrations, the world in which the two siblings came of age....

"Masterfully depicts, with quick verse and beautiful illustrations, the world in which the two siblings came of age. . . . A wonderful introduction to a truly special player." -- School Library Journal (starred review) Before Pedro Mart nez pitched the Red Sox to a World Series championship, before he was named to the All-Star team eight times, before he won the Cy Young three times, he was a kid from a place called Manoguayabo in the Dominican Republic.

He'd dream of the day he and his brother could play together in the major leagues -- and here, Matt Tavares tells the story of how that dream came true., "Masterfully depicts, with quick verse and beautiful illustrations, the world in which the two siblings came of age. . . .
