Book Reviews of Called Up: Stories of Life and Faith from the Great Game of Baseball
Book Review: Interesting, humorous and inspiring
Summary: 5 Stars
My 13 year old son not only declares this as the best devotional book he's read, but he also claims it to be the best book of sports stories he's read. I think he finds the "unexpected" among the stories. He took the book along to camp and shared with his peers the funny and inspiring quotes and bits of trivia, which prompted conversation in those awkward moments among "strangers". My husband is currently reading it and my brother-in-law has asked to be next in line, which means this book spans a generation of baseball lovers. My son tells me to keep my eye open for other publications by Dave Dravecky.
