Yankees Coloring and Activity Book
Fun for the Family: Yankee Coloring Book a Smashin' Good Time!When I was a little kid, coloring books were still really popular. Nowadays, with the spread of the Internet and new forms of electronic entertainment, it seems like books are taking a real hit. Sad to think that, 20 years ago, a nice new book could be someone's prized possession for the week or month or year it takes to complete. In today's society, kids are using the Internet before they can even understand many of the words on the screen.But every once in a while something comes along that brings us back, to that stinky paper smell that we love. In 1997 it was Harry Potter, and in 2003 it was The Da Vinci Code. Well another six years have gone by, and there's a new must read on the shelves. TheNew York Yankees Coloring & Activity Bookby Peg Connery-Boyd and Brendan Fitzgerald is the new feel good book of the year! Talk about a crowning achievement for children's literature. This is the best coloring book I have ever seen. The crossword puzzles are fun and challenging, and awesome mini games like "You Make the Call ", "Yankees Nicknames Challenge " and the "International Game " provide hours of fun and challenge for sports fans of all ages. The illustrations of current Yankees that you can color in are amazingly life-like. I found myself wishing I still had the 120 pack of Crayola Crayons, because some major coloring action was about to go downPeg and Brandon and the people at Hawk's Nest Publishing have hit a Grand Slam with this book. My little brother is a huge baseball fan and he absolutely loves it. Go out and get a copy today. It s a blast! --Daniel Sandker, hotstovenewyork.com, June 29, 2009
