Baseball is a game steeped in tradition, played from backyards to
major league stadiums, and cheered by millions of fans. But at its
most intimate and fundamental level, baseball is a game grounded in
fathers and sons: in playing catch in the twilight hours after
supper, in sons standing before old fences swinging at their
father's pitches. Creative Editions is proud to present A Coach's
Letter to His Son, a nostalgic tribute to the game.
The words of Mel Allen and sketches and photo-realistic paintings
by John Thompson combine to convey a coach's story and regrets to
his son, a baseball player not yet in his teens. Reflecting on his
own baseball childhood, the importance of family, and the
high-pressure atmosphere that surrounds youth sports at even the
earliest levels of competition today, the narrator comes to
reassess his priorities and rediscover the purity of baseball. In
an age when "America's pastime" is increasingly defined by
statistics, awards, and championships, A Coach's Letter to His Son
is a powerful and touching reminder of the heart of the game.
