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!

But he's about to find out that it's worth a lot more than money. Because it turns out Stosh has the incredible ability to travel through time using baseball cards—and now he’s headed back to 1909, when Honus Wagner played for the Pittsburgh Pirates in a World Series for the record books. But will the legendary Honus Wagner be able to teach Joe how to be a better baseball player?

Absolutely Delightful

This was a wonderful story, making me go back and to learn more about Honus Wagner. I will be looking for additional stories written by Johnny Heller. Very entertaining!

A MODERN classic

Though Mr. Gutman occasionally indulges in a left-wing political opinion or two, which I disagree with and which in my opinion has no place in a book about baseball, all the rest of this book is wonderful reading for children of all ages. If you're looking for informative and historically accurate and very entertaining reading about baseball, no matter what age you are, I highly recommend this book.

There’s no boring parts of this book.

I’ve listened to the whole baseball card adventure series many times and it never gets old. I love every single one of them.
