A Big Day for Baseball (Magic Tree House #29) by Mary Pope Osborne

A Big Day for Baseball (Magic Tree House #29) by Mary Pope Osborne-75 pages

I intended to read this for last month's challenge, but I ran out of time. I read this a couple of years ago, but it's a good book. Jack and Annie are sent back to April 15, 1947 to Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, New York. At first, they don't realize why they're there, but realize later that it was Opening Day for Major League Baseball and Jackie Robinson was making his debut as the first African-American player. I really enjoy the history and the adventure in the Magic Tree House books and this was a momentous day not just for baseball, but for the country as a whole.
