Soon the Dukes’ dugout is filled with Beethoven Mozart and Bach — and the bleachers are filled with the sound of the Dukes’ bats. Has Reginald’s violin changed the Dukes’ luck — and can his music pull off a miracle victory against the powerful Monarchs? Gavin Curtis’s beautifully told story of family ties and team spirit and E. B. Lewis’s lush watercolor paintings capture a very special period in history. My children and I love this book! My 8-year-old son is also a musician and sports fan, and he loves to read this book! After we checked it out from the library, he requested to have a hardback copy so he could read it anytime. It is a very touching and inspirational book.
