Douglas Florian’s collection of baseball poems brings wordplay, wit, and laughter to America’s springtime tradition. From the first pitch to the last out, and all nine innings in between, these poems offer something for anyone who’s ever played—or watched—a game of baseball. Featuring a mean-armed pitcher, a daisy-picking right fielder, and a lightning-fast base stealer, Florian’s Poem Runs combines irresistible language and his signature child-friendly, bold illustration style in this celebration of the magic of baseball.
