Nelson, K. (2008). We are the ship. NY: Hyperion

This book narrates the battles and experiences felt through Negro League baseball team and is  published to also reflect the sport of baseball.  The font for each chapter titles, the cover, illustrations, and the also the back of the book provide great depictions of the sport. The book provides multiple quotes from and/or about famous baseball figures. This truly reflects the type of style depicted by the author. Quotes allow the reader to feel connected to a character. For example, “If we get you boys, we’re going to get the best ones. It’s going to break your league.”
