Nelson, K. (2008). We
are the ship NY: Hyperion.
An unnamed narrator tells about the history of the Negro leagues in baseball, telling stories about famous baseball players who made it possible for players like Jackie Robinson to make history. The overall story tells about baseball and its black players and tales of adversity and segregation. The pictures in this book are incredible! The realistic paintings suck readers in and really make you take your time to read the pages. Although the story could be told without the pictures, they really add something to the writing. This book could be used when studying segregation or famous people who made history by being trailblazers.
