Resumen del Editor

With a baseball career that has spanned over 40 years, Walter, a father of two sons and now a grandfather of two grandsons, wants to pass down the love for the sport of baseball. The game taught him so much as a child that he created Buzzy Baseball the Baseball Bee, with the hope that children would be able to learn simple life lessons via the sport of baseball.

Buzzy Baseball the Baseball Bee will help toddlers/children ages two to nine learn life lessons through the great game of baseball. Buzzy and his friends Sting and Bumble will help toddlers/children learn about teamwork, sharing, helping others, and much more. 

Baseball helps young children understand what it means to be a part of a community and a team. Many of today's youth sports, especially baseball, have become overly structured and organized. Children feel anxiety as well as fear of disappointing their family and peers. Buzzy will teach children not to fear striking out or dropping a fly ball. As long as children give their best and have fun, that is all that will matter. 

Buzzy will allow children to enjoy simply having fun with their friends and learn valuable life lessons while playing and practicing baseball. It is important to feel part of a team and to feel that you are contributing to your team. This is true in a classroom, on a playing field, and at home. 

Buzzy will make for great bedtime stories for both boys and girls. As parents, it is important to remember that your child should never feel the need to perform to meet anyone else's standards. Every child simply needs to give their best and compete to the best of their ability.

The author Walter A. Beede, whose nickname is Buzzy, grew up in a neighborhood filled with pickup baseball and wiffleball games. He went from being one of the worst players in his neighborhood to becoming one of the best in his state as a high schooler. The sport of baseball gave him a great understanding of how to deal with life's ups and downs. Hitters do not get a hit with every at bat, pitchers do not strike out every batter, and fielders sometimes make errors. Making mistakes in the classroom or at home helps children learn in all aspects of life. 

Buzzy Baseball will be a fun series to share with your children, whether it's bedtime or simply story time during a ride home, or maybe even a rainy day.

Engaging kid friendly lesson

This is a great story about good sportsmanship. It was just the right length to keep my sons attention and engaging enough for him to pay attention to the story! I think he will pick up on the life lessons this book offers after a few more listens, the best part is he loved it so much he wants to listen again! The narration was so enthusiastic even i had fun listening about buzzy playing baseball.

Cute book for kids

As someone who was an athlete in high school, I do believe sports help build character. You learn about teamwork, how to take losses, etc. This storybook is great for toddlers to listen to and learn the valuable lessons many of us learned from sports. It's a great worthwhile listen for all young kids ages 3-6.

Baseball kiddos will love this!

This is a cute little story, perfect length for bedtime. It appears to be the first book of a series so I will need to check the others out. Definitely a must if you have kids who love this sport!

Very Fun and Creative

This audiobook is great for kids. It's an engaging and entertaining story about buzzy bees playing baseball. It's short sweet (like honey) to the point and very educational as well. Overall it's a great audiobook for kids and even toddlers as well. Awesome listen.

My Boys love Buzzy!!

As a homeschool mom of 2 boys ages 8 and 4 this books speaks to my heart. There is always a stage in life anywhere between 2 and 10, where boys have to learn courage, determination, and resilience that can carry them through life's challenges, for the rest of their life, going into manhood. Having goals, and being able to mentally and emotionally handle loss in the mist of competition. Also realizing that fear can truly be conquered. This book gives parents an extra resource to use when attempting to be there for their little ones, and help them think through those moments of butterflies and fear, especially at a young age!!! I say the younger the better!!!The narrator was awesome, she read the book with such enthusiasm, my kids remained engaged throughout the entire listen. They cant wait to hear book 2, 3, and 4 now!! This book is lovely and tasteful and worth being apart of any child's book shelf collection.

Fantastic

This short listen is fantastic. It has great value for kids that are learning all about sportsmanship and how to play a new game. It is a great reminder for parents as well.
Well done.

Great for kids!

I was really happy with this audiobook!

I love it when good audiobooks for kids come with life lessons and things to pick up from the stories and this is a great example of one of those.

The narration quality is also fantastic and engaging. Great listen for kids!!

Encouraging story

It’s quick and cute. Before games kids will feel anxious, fear, and possibly disappointment. That’s the great thing about sports, face it, and work through the challenge to build self esteem and social skills. I loved the narrators voice.

Fascinating

Probably very short but very fun and great to help kids through this book. A fun way to learn how to be sporty at a young age, learn about sportsmanship and all. Great content for kids!
