"The legendary Willie Mays shares the inspirations and influences responsible for guiding him on and off the field in this reflective and inspirational memoir. "It's because of giants like Willie that someone like me could even think about running for President." -President Barack Obama Widely regarded as the greatest all-around player in baseball history because of his unparalleled hitting, defense and baserunning, the beloved Willie Mays offers people of all ages his lifetime of experience meeting challenges with positivity, integrity and triumph in 24: Life Stories and Lessons from the Say Hey Kid. Presented in 24 chapters to correspond with his universally recognized uniform number, Willie's memoir provides more than the story of his role in America's pastime. This is the story of a man who values family and community, engages in charitable causes especially involving children and follows a philosophy that encourages hope, hard work and the fulfillment of dreams. "I was very lucky when I was a child. My family took care of me and made sure I was in early at night. I didn't get in trouble. My father made sure that I didn't do the wrong thing. I've always had a special place in my heart for children and their well-being, and John Shea and I got the idea that we should do something for the kids and the fathers and the mothers, and that's why this book is being published. We want to reach out to all generations and backgrounds. Hopefully, these stories and lessons will inspire people in a positive way." -Willie Mays"--… (lisätietoja)

Looks like I am the first to review this book....Sorry Willie! All my respects go to the man, but next time hire someone who can write. This book was written at about a fifth to sixth grade level. I’m not even sure how inspirational this “inspirational” book was. I adore baseball and generally enjoy baseball books, but this really was bad. Read the first chapter and you’ve read the book...redundancy is the books middle name! 24 chapters for Willie’s uniform number....interesting concept but you should have 24 unique concepts to match those chapters. Having Bob Costas write the Forward is not a selling point either. So....Again, Willie is the greatest, no doubt, just not this book. Finished 02.06.2020 at the NR. ( )
