Randy Riley’s Really Big Hit by Chris Van Dusen -Advisable


Van Dusen, Chris Randy Riley’s Really Big Hit 32 pgs, Candlewick, 2012. $10.77.  (Rating: G)
Randy Riley two favorite things collide in a spectacular way in this story. He loves baseball, but isn’t so great at it. He loves astronomy and is so good at it that he is the first to notice that a fireball is headed right for his town. He creatively combines his two hobbies in his attempt to save the day, and he just might have some brains and luck on his side.
The story is over the top and fun, and combined with the big stunningly bright artwork –it’s a homerun for a silly story time.
