Honus and Me: A Baseball Card Adventure 
asked by fabio on November 4, 2006 1:07 PM
Joe Stoshack lives for baseball. He knows everything there is to know about the game -- except how to play well. His specialty is striking out. Stosh feels like a real loser, and when he takes a low-paying job cleaning a bunch of junk out of his neighbor's attic, he feels even worse -- until he comes across a little piece of cardboard that takes his breath away. His heart is racing. His brain is racing. He can hardly believe his eyes. Stosh has stumbled upon a T-206 Honus Wagner -- the most valuable baseball card in the world! And he's about to find out that it's worth a lot more than money....

It was an all-around good book. I liked it, because it was about baseball. I recommend this to you if you like short-quick sports books. I liked how his baseball cards are "magical."

Dan Gutman won 15 state book awards. He wrote the book called Honus & Me.
Honus & Me is about a kid who can travel back through time with baseball cards. The kid's name is Joey. Joey brings Honus forward to his place in time. Honus teaches Joey the secret of playing baseball.
Dan Gutman is a great author. Dan Gutman was born in New York City, on October 19, 1995. Dan wanted to write humorous books and essays. Dan's first essay sold for $15.00 to a newspaper.
I think this one of the greatest books I ever read. It's funny, and it adventurous. My opinion this is a book that people should read.

The novel, Honus and Me was an exciting book to read. I enjoyed this book because it was based on sports. (Baseball) this was cool cause I could make a lot of connections.
There were a couple of scenes in Honus and Me that were truly enjoyable. Including when Stoshack batted for Honus while Honus cleaned up his hand after Ty Cobb's cleats spiked him. Another favorite scene was when Miss Young came out with her shotgun and broke the fight up between Stoshack and Birdie who was trying to take the t-206 Honus Wagner card.
If I could change one thing in this book I would have let Stoshack keep at least one of the Honus cards. I think the author didn't let him because he was trying to show a lesson.
A few things were learned from reading this book such as always doing the wright thing. Even if it can make you mad. One thing I gained from reading this book was that even if people are bowlegged they shouldn't be judged.
